Instead of guns, why not regulate ammo?

Yeah, I'm with you on the direction to approach from, if slightly different in tack. I was just amusing myself. Hopefully I wasn't causing you too much annoyance.
Nah, not annoyed. Tbh, fixing the people is going to be much harder than just regulating the implements of their destruction.
It has to be possible, though. Some places seem to manage some kind of sanity, at least.
You mean places that support their societies with things like affordable health care? Not sure that type of progressive governance is going to be a reality in the US for some time
Never impossible, but not happening yet. I have a suspicion things will shift more as the cold warriors inevitably succumb to the limits of mortality. All the power and money in the world still can't stop the power of time.
Yep... time heals all wounds, it's up to us to make new ones (and we make them like this)
