You can most likely open a prescription bottle with a 'child-proof cap' on it. That doesn't mean having caps like that is an ineffective safety measure... because three-year-old children have an awfully tough time getting a bottle like that open, and THAT is the point. The sentiment of Booker's ideas is similar.

The things Booker mentioned are simple, and little or zero hindrance to the legal enjoyment of gun ownership. I have yet to hear a better idea from you... or anyone else.
I do not oppose limiting the ability of the mentally ill to possess firearms provided that competency is determined by a court of proper jurisdiction. That is already part of existing law and only needs to be enforced.

I do oppose limiting the possessory and acquisition rights of normal people in a "feel good" effort to control what fucking CRAZY PEOPLE do!
