I would normally have supported you without reservation, but after the shooting in Oslo, Norway last weekend - two killed, about twenty harmed, Pride/the LGBTQ+ community was probably the target and all Pride arrangements in most major cities are cancelled/delayed (50 year anniversary for decriminalization of msm) - I am less optimistic

The shooter has multiple convictions for violence, is treated for paranoid schizophrenia, had known relations to a radicalized Islamist community, and was interviewed by the security service in May. He had about every red flag you can think of. Yet, he was able to get access to a an automatic weapon of some sort, despite the regulations having become stricter after the terror attack in 2011

Unfortunately, the US is not Europe. There are already millions of guns in circulation, and a relatively porous border to the south through which enormous volumes of smuggling routinely take place. Even if you were able to muster support for a blanket ban on firearms, you would need to propose a credible means through which to recover the guns in circulation and prevent their replacement through illegal traffic.

It would behoove your analysis to consider American gun legislation through this lens. It might even prompt an original thought.

How do you expect that to work in the US?
