I need some of the ideas fleshed out. What does a hearty conceal carry license requirement look like to you? For instance in my state you gotta pay a couple hundred bucks and do 16 hours of training(a 2 day class, 8 hours each day). Would that be enough? If not, what would?
And what kind of child prevention requirements would you mean?
EDIT: And what would you do when it comes to background checks that we don't do now?

There is recidivism data but what you're asking, I don't know if it exists. That seems to be a subset of a subset of people. Such a small data set that you could probably google search every single case for the last 10 years to find your data. Almost none are first time offenders. [
Massachusetts General Law c. 140, §§128A and 128B, requires all individuals who sell, transfer, inherit, or lose a firearm to report the sale, transfer, inheritance, or loss of the firearms to the Department of Criminal Justice Information Services Firearms Records Bureau (FRB). This on-line system will allow you to report the sale, transfer, inheritance, or loss/theft data electronically to the FRB
And each ltc has to be approved by i believe ur local law enforcement agency before being issued.
Here in Mass we have some of the strictest gun laws in the country. We are also at the top of the list for fewest gun deaths per 100,000.
Then i looked into other states laws and murder numbers and found that New Hampshire has some of the most lax gun laws in the country and they too are are annualy at the top of the list for fewest gun deaths per 100,000.
The deeper i looked into it, I found that there was less correlation between states that had tough/lax gun laws and high gun deaths and overall violent crime as there was between states with the lower education levels and murder/violent crime rates.
I dont recall the exact #'s, but think i discussed this with u before and provided links and graphs and stuff to back up the info, but from what i can remember i basically broke down like this.
It'd be balanced out by lefties losing guns so it's not a very smart progressive tactic(and thus fits in perfectly with progressive tactics)

I will never understand how many people can't seem to grasp that incredibly simple fact.

Surely if we banned all guns the bad guys would give theirs up. I mean if they wouldn't then anyone advocating for the banning of all guns just isn't very bright.

Bad guys wouldn't give them up and you know it, it's simple reverse psychology.
That's why I suggest a federal program aimed at distributing more guns to everyday citizens. A 9mm in every waistband and a shotgun in every car. When everybody else is armed bad guys will reflexively disarm--they're contrarians by definition, after all.

Classroom instruction + written and practical exam. Accommodations can be made for the visual or hearing impaired. If you are not intelligent enough to pass this written exam or physically capable enough to pass the practical exam (actually shooting a gun with targets, showing proper safety procedure, etc.), then you should not be allowed to conceal and carry.
No. Exams. Both written and practical. Needs more of that.
Some states already have these requirements: it's just not federally required.
I'm sure you can think of the answers:
1. Safe, secure, storage of guns, in general.
2. Quick-draw guns, that are loaded (like under your bed or drawer), should be stored in quick access safes or use quick access locks. If you can't be arsed to upkeep your quick access weapons (such as replacing the batteries) and you have children in your home, looks like you're not responsible enough to have guns in your home with children. This would be mostly a passive law. We won't be doing random home inspections like Japan does.
3. Teaching children safe gun use and procedure when they are in kindergarten. They get taught about fires, bad weather, etc. Why not guns? Research shows that teaching them young saves lives. We should teach them more about health and safety stuff, for sure.
Many states already have hearty background checks. This is simply requiring all states to perform this. Inconsistency is a problem. This is also known as a universal background check. The background check criteria are already outlined in the text I quoted.
With a system that makes background checks super easy, there should be no 2 month waiting periods. I think 3 days is good. I need research to support shorter or longer waiting periods.
Right. My ideas are not original. They are just ideas that should be applied federally, across all states.
Also, yes, these regulations seek to target (ha! pun! weeee!) crimes of passion. Preventing emotionally reactionary homicides is a good thing. Preventing accidental deaths is a good thing. Preventing gun-related child injury and death is a good thing. These regulations would target those. Not necessarily violence, in general.
Such a small data set that you could probably google search every single case for the last 10 years to find your data. Almost none are first time offenders.
Hmm, given violent crime with guns outnumbers suicides, etc. by a lot I'd say...worth it?

See I find it god damn pathetic the way the media reacts to any good guy with a gun story. They try to destroy the narrative and poison the well. Look at this shit:
Imaging being triggered people are happy a shooting was prevented from being more tragic than it could have been. It honestly feels like they'd be happier if the shooter mowed down 20-30 people.
"Are we relegated to finding solace in the fact that only three people died inside of a church in the latest tragedy, and must we seek comfort in the idea that six people felt a need to be armed as they worshiped? Is this really how we live in America? Of course, it's foolish to think Texans weren't already carrying guns into their churches; the gun is what won the West, and often still brings food to the table. But are we heading to a time where one worshiper has to whisper to the next, "Cover me, I'm going up to take communion?"
Wow lol

They really do seem to wish these heroes weren't there. Or at the very least they are bothered by their presence.

The number one response to that tweet(at least when I click it) is a f*cking mic drop that perfectly sums up why this story is leaving certain folk so damn butthurt.
