We would like to have laws on the books that prevent a gun capable of killing 20-30-40-50-60-70-80-90-100 people in a matter of a minute or two or three in the hands of anyone.
In exchange, here is the really gross part, we are willing to allow guns that can kill 5-10 in few seconds.
How fucking sick is that. But it is what it is.

Reading it I feel like I am in second grade.

of laws to get and KEEP guns out of the hands of domestic abusers.
Oh, I'd also like much harsher penalties for gun crime. Oh, and registration, even if only accessible by LEO.
