I got no issue with people carrying guns that don't suffer from mental disorders. Or are subject to acting out by being incited, either politically or ideology to take another person's life. I believe in the second amendment, but also agree that there needs to be some level of either scrutiny or training provided for those that carry high capacity firearms. You hardly ever hear about somebody taking out a whole bunch of people with a 38 special, a 357, or even a desert eagle, but any gun that holds 30 rounds could be dangerous, including a 22. Which is actually my favorite gun to shoot since it's so inexpensive by comparison to my other guns. All the finger pointing aside, I wonder what a good solution would be to stop these crazy to pick up firearms like in Las vegas, or Orlando, or any school that's been shot up? I really don't want to defend the right to carry a gun, versus how do you keep the cuckoos away from owning one?

Difficult to read, and tough to reply to.
A firearm doesn't need 30 rounds to be dangerous, that is a ridiculous argument, I've seen shooters who can drop and change a mag in seconds, limiting rounds isn't a solution.
Second, you aren't going to stop this, the recent and celebrated "Ghost Gun" directive didn't do one damn thing to stop them, but, forces bad guys to buy from two or three different places, but, you can still produce a serial number less Glock, just like you could before all the bullshit.
Or, you just drive a stolen car through the front doors, and steal what you want, like what happened a few days ago, AGAIN.
A 22 is easily lethal, and so easy to shoot, a well trained shooter could do lethal damage, you don't need an AR to kill, that's the point we have been making, a 30/30 works, so does a 32 auto, or a 25 auto, both which led the murder statistics for decades.
And there is no "I respect the 2nd A, but want to do everything to keep the guns out of wackos hands".
Unfortunately, you find out who the whackos are after they do it, or, long after signs of mental issues have been present, Uvalde, Marjorie Douglass, the theater in Denver, Newtown, etc, etc, ad nauseum, because the "System" to catch these sick fucks is broken, ignored and intentionally not used because nobody want the hassles to report this stuff, nor, do they really care.
IF you seriously want to stop mass shooting, encourage more people to carry, allow carry in schools and malls, and quit demonizing gun ownership, and fighting against everyone right to own a firearm and defend themselves and others.
I can honestly say I have both had firearms pointed at me, and have done the same to bad people, multiple times.
Can any of you even say you have had one or another happen to you?
Just wondering about gun ownership and experience, and your pedigree so to speak.
