It seems you only want to do one.
Ask how many hundreds of thousands of Americans would die while the government sorted out social justice. You seem cool with that.
And no I am not aiming for 100% as a realistic goal, but if we managed to drop gun violence to European levels it would save 20K plus people a year.
Now, is that a goal worth fighting for, and something you could try to accomplish without sounding like a hypocrite when you say you care about gun violence? Yes, yes it is.
Heck, people on here don't even want background checks... how in the hell can you think that piecemeal "gun control" is gonna knock more than 10% off the number of dead kids a year. If that's the goal then saying you care about gun violence is IMO hypocritical.
I do not believe for a second that you can be upset about gun violence and yet not want to lower it by more than 10%. That's just a lie.
