    And don’t start me with red flag laws, I know exactly how those would work out. Imagine vengeful exes, modern Brown Shirts, cops you pissed off, fuck me, even neighbors that are annoyed with you. While we’re at it, let’s just chunk the 4A right out the window.

    Ya know you mostly had me up until here. Red flag laws - when your neighbor becomes despondent they should just leave the firearms around? When some kook starts waving his pistol around at the 7-11, you think they’re keeping and bearing arms responsibly? I don’t. Red Flag Laws are necessary.

    This nation needs to be responsible with the 440 MILLION firearms it’s accumulated if they’re going to keep them.

    I don’t think it’s intractable I think it’s unenforced and under-reported.
