Yea, had to really zoom out to see your screed. And I also don't really agree with you that this would solve these mass shootings. Would it lower day to day gun violence? Maybe. Do I think we should implement a lot of those? Yes. Either way these events don't stop until you melt down every weapon in this country.
Mass shootings weren't really a thing until about 30 years ago. Our society has had decades to break down and become what it is now. You will never get rid of all the weapons, and if you tried you would need to kill a lot of people.
Or just outlaw the sale of them, shut down manufacturers and watch them fade away. And anyone caught making them give 20 years.
