Gun Control Reform Activism

I came here because I support some gun control measures that I think would help the situation that we face in regards to gun violence in this country. I'm very open about supporting some measures and opposing measures that I don't think will do any good and in fact could be counter-productive to more meaningful violence reduction efforts.

You seem to want to demand some kind of blood oath of everyone who comes here, that they support any conceivable suggestion in terms of gun control, regardless of it's effectiveness, regardless of any potential negative unintended consequences it might have or of it's political viability. The portion of the progressive movement willing to adhere to such a rigid standard is likely to be pretty small. On the other hand, the portion of the progressive movement willing to support common sense measures which can actually be enacted and which could have a meaningful impact on reducing gun violence is likely to be huge. If the goal is to promote meaningful gun control, which of those two standards is likely to be more successful?
