You can't work at a fast food job without sitting down and talking with a manager and providing some references. Surely we can make purchasing a firearm at least as hard as that.

For jobs in which there is a concern to the public's safety, there is a vetting process that you have to go through. Of course it would be costly, but it'd be a worthwhile cost. If our police officers had to spend time vetting firearms purchases and making sure guns aren't getting into the hands of people with ill intent, then they'll have a lot fewer murders and suicides to investigate. This is evidenced by the fact that there are some states which already do this, and many countries such as France and Germany which have an active and vibrant gun culture yet nowhere near the number of shootings that we have.

When Republicans outright change what the Constitution said and have enough Justices to make it stick thatll keep happening.
