319. Never in a million years will that work
It's illegal for people under 21 and felons to have guns. Take guns away from those people, and you stop 99% of US gun deaths.

As long as it's a piece of cake for any "law abiding" citizen to acquire handguns or automatic weapons, there will be no such thing as "Take guns away from felons".

The only way to stop 99% of US gun deaths is to take away 99% of the guns. Anything else and you're just dreaming. Now, am I personally calling for that kind of gun control? No I'm not. However, would I be happy if automatic weapons and handguns were not allowed in people's homes? You betcha.
