an enhanced review process for buyers under the age of 21


Well if you're 21+ you're still going to be free to indiscriminately kill as many people as you want I guess

Well after 21 your brain is closer to being fully formed and should act in a more stable manner than 17, 18 year olds. Hey, its something at least.

I won't believe it till it reaches Biden's desk. Bipartisan gun control with the current Congress is laughable.

A bipartisan group of senators announced an agreement on principle for gun safety legislation Sunday, which includes "needed mental health resources, improves school safety and support for students, and helps ensure dangerous criminals and those who are adjudicated as mentally ill can't purchase weapons," they said in a statement.

Notably, the announcement includes the support of 10 Republican senators, which would give the proposal enough support to overcome the Senate filibuster. The agreement is significant given how divided lawmakers have been over the gun issue, but the actual legislative text is not yet written.
The proposal includes support for state crisis intervention orders, funding for school safety resources, an enhanced review process for buyers under the age of 21 and penalties foe straw purchasing.

There's enough of these incidents that targeting specifically under-21s isn't going to do a ton. It just seems to be a reaction to the Robb Elementary and Buffalo shootings, but for example just recently as well, the Tulsa shooting, and the NY Subway shooting were committed by older people.

I thought the issue of younger shooters is that they could have a juvenile record that wouldnt be uncovered with the current system. The enhanced background check is supposed to be able to catch stuff like that now

Of course a lot more could be done but this is certainly better than one side saying thoughts and prayers and refusing to compromise at all

More could be done of course! But that would be asking too much from republicans. And its not like shootings will ever go down to 0.

This is window dressing, nothing more. We need large scale institutional changes.

Also, the laws mean nothing if they arent enforced. One side of my family is pretty damn gun happy. They are always talking about how they have conceal & carries, and how great it is. One family member moved to Wisconsin about a year ago, and he was complaining about how his license didnt follow him, and he had to reapply but how great it was because he had to take a test, and the person running the shop gave him all the answers. He got his license 2 days later.

These provisions are insufficient for addressing the scale of the problem, and I expect a number of sheriffs and police departments to make a public show of not enforcing it. But, they are better than the nothing I expected.

Isn't the average age of a mass shooter older than 21?

This is like really weak shit.

The domestic abuser one is the biggest of all. Historically speaking, the most common non-physical trait shared by mass shooters is that they usually have a history of violence against women and/ or children.
