I will be strongly pushing Comprehensive Background Checks with an emphasis on Mental Health. Raise age to 21 and end sale of Bump Stocks! Congress is in a mood to finally do something on this issue - I hope!
Only if they raise the draft age to 21 and bar entrance into the military until 21.

he should have to do that anyway. Proper gun safety. they're supposed to be locked up and kept away from people who aren't supposed to access them. tbh if Joe doesn't lock up his gun and 15 year old charlie gets his hands on it, unsupervised, and hurts someone or something i think Joe should face some consequences for negligence.
I can get in trouble right now for buying a minor alcohol. you should get in trouble for buying a weapon FOR a minor...i think you can amend that to mean the minor can have supervised access to it. take him to a range, etc....but when its not in use lock it up and don't give the minor access...
There's a difference between using a gun & being taught how to use it safely and buying a gun on your own with no supervision.
Just because you can't buy a gun doesn't mean you shouldn't be able to use one. And if you go hunting with your grandfather or something you should be taught how to use a gun safely.
Ill get behind this. If you want one earlier then go join the military or police force where you re supervised training. I also wouldnt oppose a gun safety course in grade schools, similar to what we did with DARE back in the 90s. Educate kids on why things can be dangerous and proper handling instead of this is evil it wants to murder you and your family!

DARE was a pretty massive failure.
Its a start.
And im fine with you being able to join the army at 18. Because ya know they actually will train you to handle a weapon properly.
The vegas shooting clearly wouldn't have happened if we had the age restriction be at 21....

The Army doesn't teach you to use a weapon properly. They teach you just enough to not negligently discharge your weapon, and pass qualifications.

The literal only way to 100% stop gun violence is to fully ban and destroy all guns. Regardless of whether that's even feasible or not, does anyone think that is a good idea?

This will never work unless it doesn't apply to hunting rifles and shotguns. Most people that hunt start when they're 13-16 or younger. What are they all going to do between the ages of 18-21 when they're old enough to move out but can't buy their own guns? Simply not possible unless there's exceptions for hunting. Too many people rely on hunting for affordable protein.
and they're just going to start buying them from private sellers and not registering them.
I'm all for this when it comes to practically everything else. I don't think any man below the age of 25 should be allowed to buy ARs. Let them get that teen angst out of their systems first.

So then I take it you guys are for just flat out banning AR-15's regardless of age? We can finally agree on something.

Notice how this kid tries to troll when his/her argument gets blown out of the water by logic.
