So what would be a reasonable yardstick to apply?

The same level as a policeman? No, they also have a habit of shooting unarmed innocent people, well they do in the US. This will increase as the police will be in more fear of getting shot.

So the same level as Special Forces who can walk into a room and only shoot the terrorists? Seems reasonable. The problem is the NRA will never allow this much control. And at the moment, all it needs is someone with the intelligence to tick the right boxes on a form.

Like. Have you ever shot someone Yes or No? Before they hand over the tools to do it.

As for allowing Texans to carry guns. Well, that's bound to keep everyone so much safer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



2015: The year of mass shootings. Seems to work so well, so far. So obviously, more guns would solve the problem.

This is like telling a devout born again Christian, god is man made in order to rip people off. As he pours money into the churches coffers.
