None of those proposals address the REAL problem which is people that currently break the law.

How about enforcing the laws on the books with real jail time? Specifically felon in possession, defacing serial numbers, and straw purchases.

See, you're falling for the trick. This isn't about reducing violence or crime. They don't care about that in the least. This is about increasing the left's influence over culture and their grip on power. Gun ownership is simply a behavior that strongly correlates to also being more liberty-minded and less inclined towards a larger, more intrusive nanny state. So they do everything they can to pound on people with that world view, and trying to make gun ownership shameful (and, preferably, criminal) is a way to weaken the coherence of their political foes.

And if course in the case of someone like Swalwell, it's also just a craven way to try to stay in the media spotlight, and to pander for votes among his insane constituency, so he can keep his nice cushy job.

200 rounds = hoarding???? that will barely get me thru a match.

background checks for AMMO purchases??? how friggin' ridiculous is that. especially given he doesn't want anyone to have more than 200 rounds. maybe we should require daily vision checks and daily driving tests for motorists.

where are the onerous/ridiculous regulations for alcohol and cell phones, or i guess drunk and distracted driving deaths don't really matter. c'mon. one 12oz beer or 1oz alcohol per day with a nationwide registry, high capacity alcohol banned (kegs, cases, 6 paks), mandatory motion sensors on cell phones that cut off if motion detected.

Doesn't matter if he thinks you should have to buy your ammo AT the range, after passing a background check at the cash register. No doubt along with a large background check fee, and of course the hourly fee to pay a personal range officer to look over your shoulder for your entire visit to make sure you don't horde any of that ammo into your pocket to take home.



Or, maybe you'll just decide that any sort of shooting and gun owning will just become too expensive and annoying, and you'll give up on the whole thing. Which is just what these people want. And if you give up on THAT liberty, you'll start to break down on all the other ones, too. Which is what they really want, after all.
