If any of these people actually cared about resolving anything it would be directed towards handguns.

More people die to hammers than guns. Seriously..look it up

Yes, rather take no action and solve none of the problem than solve a part of it, regardless of how small. How american of you.

If you have a better idea, write to your senator so they can propose something instead of just blocking any attempt to change anything. But you don't, you're just here to shout "that won't work" and do nothing. Maintain the status quo. Good job. /salute.

Man I teach sociology and work part time in my local government. I probably do more than anybody else in this silly thread.

doing something hastily, regardless of how small, without understanding the repercussions is a lot worse than doing nothing

am i implying you dont understand gun violence? not really. i am implying you probably didnt read said defeated gun registration bill, and might have missed some of the fine print

sometimes problems solve themselves and sometimes they arent even real problems. i cant think of anything more american than spending, shooting, bombing and cutting to solve problems that arent real

but what do i know? your president left my country and went to govern yours.

I know you're trolling but there's actually a lot of people who think that and honestly it's retarded, people should feel bad for believing a ridiculous claim

Even if it were true hammers have a wide range of purposes that they're used for... guns do not.
