My solution to gun insanity

[SayWut]

39. How about keeping it real?

I have to admit, some of the suggestions, ideas and solutions to gun control or gun violence posted here can be amusing.
Oftentimes they range from the foolish, laughable, patently absurd and totally unconstitutional.
In fairness though, every now and then (like a blind squirrel finding an acorn), some sound and workable ideas are posted.
Using your post as an example, there's a little bit of everything for everyone.

Exhibit A:
"Commit a crime with an official gun or one that is not registered and tracked you go away for a long time or forever in prison.
Release petty drug offenders who are taking up cell space but never committed a real crime to make room."

I have no idea what this "official gun" you speak of is (officially what), or what would constitute an 'unofficial gun', but that aside (well that, and being "registered" and "tracked&quot , you hit the nail on the head with "Commit a crime with an official gun or one that is not registered and tracked you go away for a long time or forever in prison.
Release petty drug offenders who are taking up cell space but never committed a real crime to make room." Is an acceptable and effective move that I believe both sides could agree upon.

Now enter the foolish, laughable, patently absurd and totally unconstitutional scene of your act.

Exhibit B: "keep the 2nd amendment but make everyone that wants to be a part of the "well regulated militia" put their name on it.
They train,they respond to orders,their guns are registered and tracked.

For everyone else that wants to hunt and shoot to their little hearts desire they can pay a fee along with the license to sign one out of a official armory.
Just like a library there is a time allowed and if not turned back in on time a fine is charged."

"Official armories"? "Fee and license"? "Train and respond"?

I'll forgo the ridicule and laughter on that for know and simply ask you (and others), do you, have you ever taken the time to read and understand the current interpretation of the 2nd amendment, and recent Supreme Court decisions upholding it?

And people sit here and wonder why the gun control debate is going nowhere.
