Far more guns are actually smuggled across the border into Mexico than the other way around, paste eating retard.

Unsurprising that the guy who is so self-absorbed that he thought the whole forums needed to see a post from him notifying us that we wouldn't be seeing him much anymore (although weirdly enough he has so little going on in his life that he's still here!) thinks he's as important as the leader of a major country and needs guns for protection.

anyone who thinks they can put a dent in that number is a retard
I mean I don't think anyone would expect to put a dent in it overnight. But over time you could put a significant dent in it. First off, in a longer term you will have none of those products being legally sold in the US, which will ultimately put a dent in the total number.

Second, if you make it illegal to own certain guns and enforce significant penalties, normal law-abiding citizens will get rid of their guns (especially if you reimburse them to some extent for the lost property).

Third, and this ties into the above a bit, multiple countries have taken millions of guns off the street through gun "buy back" programs where you can surrender your firearms no questions asked and they will pay you for them. You could do this periodically over the years in the US and make a significant dent.

Fourth, are there already guns in peoples' hands? Yes. But what your comment ignores is a lot of this is ALSO about keeping people from OBTAINING types of guns in the future. One of those millions of guns wasn't in Ramos's hands the past few years; he went and bought it recently. It's not just about reducing the number of current guns, but about making sure people who don't already have them can't access them in the future to go kill children with them.

Probably not, they already have that with the orange man too
Not with the Ar-15, the symbol created by the media for the media to attack. Now if you bring up the FAL you might get traction.

The Commerce Clause describes an enumerated power listed in the United States Constitution. The clause states that the United States Congress shall have power "to regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes."

Allow more lawsuits vs gun companies.

Push companies for safety or face bankruptcy.

For those guns that exist if anyone sees you using a gun irresponsibly (let alone killing others) allow incentivizing civilians to sue with a $10,000 cash reward. Works for Texas.

Put the gun nuts in their place.
bitch bitch bitch bitch whine whine whine whine

does nothing

Oh ok that's productive. yeah guess we should just shrug our shoulders and say "well, despite the fact that we're the only first world country where tons of kids get killed every year by guns, there's nothing we can do about that."

Or we can get down to brass tacks and start trying to find solutions and implementing them. If we try a solution and it doesn't work, then we come up with another one.

The type of thinking you're exhibiting makes me pretty confident that you're a low wage worker and/or undereducated because you are unable to think creatively or critically.

other countries don't advertise their tiny few crazy people the way the US does

the US MSM hates america so much that they wait for the 1 crazy WHITE guy to go off then they report on it for years and years and years like it happens everyday.

black and hispanics kill thousands of people daily in this country, but you don't hear about it

you're all fucking hypocrits

LOOK AT ME I CARE ABOUT THE LATEST THING, IM WITH IT, IM UP TO DATE, LOOK AT MEEEEEE

the FAL is belgian, US media won't touch it.

AR-15 is a 75 year old American design, therefore the MSM hate it.

but they love the guns held by men who are paid to protect them.
