I'm so sick of hearing about background checks, they don't work and they will never work. Nothing stops someone with a clean background from snapping and going on a rampage and nothing stops a felon or terrorist from having someone else make a straw purchase.

The problem here is the fact that guns can easily be purchased by civilians, this needs to end. We need total bans, we need to make it illegal to import and manufacture these weapons of war.

Handguns, rifles, shotguns all must go. If you want go hunting so badly, fly your ass up to England or where ever they'll allow you to own a firearm for that reason.

Anything less is just feel good BS.
