Why isn't the gun the issue here?
No, I am hardly slow.....at least not in this conversation. The gun most certainly is part of the issue. I have stated my position many times before. I began shooting at five years of age with my family who belonged to numerous gun clubs. My father would shoot competitively, and the rest of us were shooting during his competitions. I received NRA sharpshooter awards in competition in my early teens, and I own three guns, and my brother took all twenty of my father's guns. I have always been around guns and have hunted my entire life, but not so much now.
My position is simple. Guns are inherently dangerous. The Supreme Court has clearly said regulation of guns is permissible and not a violation of the second amendment. Simple answer. Universal registration with biometric trigger locks. If I have a gun, the lock only allows me to fire the gun with fingerprint recognition. I had a fingerprint scanner to unlock my computer for four years back in the late 90s early 2000 and it worked perfectly that long ago. I also want in the registration process rf chips in the guns. From there we will be able to begin not having PERFECT solutions, but solutions which can and will reduce gun violence and death. Attack my approach if you dare.
