I’m sorry but I totally despise that term “gun” violence because the gun is not the problem creating the violence, it’s the people. That’s just a term that was just brought on by the true gun-hating liberals who most definitely think the guns are the problem when they’re not. Even though a gun is pretty much the most effective tool, a gun is not the only weapon that people can use to hurt people.
With that out-of-the-way, I get what you’re saying when you say on that mindset that we should just abolish all laws against that, child abuse, sexual abuse, drugs, speeding and all that stuff but here lies the problem; since laws don’t work at all for prevention, what people need to do is just realize that we have a problem and the only way that it’s ever going to get solved is to stop with these restricting laws that really only restrict the people who follow laws in the first place. Don’t make the good people pay to exercise their Second Amendment rights… Don’t limit people to just 10 round magazines when it’s a no-brainer that criminals say piss off to that law anyway.
Instead, make the punishment for these crimes even harsher; stop the bleeding heart liberals and whoever else is responsible for not letting prisons be the most unhappy, scary and unfriendly places in the world like they were a long time ago back when nobody wanted to go to prison. Don’t make it so that people have to jump through hoops just to defend themselves. Stop with this gun free zone bullshit because anybody with half a brain ought to realize that no criminal is going to change his mind about wanting to rob a place just because the owner put up a sign that says no guns.
Look… I know you want a solution… A lot of people want a solution, even myself but these crimes that involve a gun are not gonna stop with heavier enforcement or more laws. Do you want this to stop? Let’s all join together and start making it to where the person who wants to break into your house, rob that liquor store or start shooting at people in a school or at a grocery store a lot more scared to do that when he thinks there’s a lot more people armed that are ready to shoot back.
Nowadays, hardly anybody wants to shoot back or even carry a gun because whether it’s not being able to afford the price of a permission slip to exercise your Second Amendment rights or fear of prosecution if they tried to be a hero or defend themselves. States that may issue you a permit if you can convince them that you have a good enough reason of why you want to carry a gun. Wanting gun owners to have to pay into some insurance fund just because they own a gun for so-called victims to dip into whenever they fall victim of a mass shooting. Hell, just for truck drivers alone, the lack of state to state reciprocity that would allow these truck drivers to carry a gun no matter what state they’re in to defend themselves. And it’s really not only for truck drivers, it’s also for a lot of people who intend to travel as well. Trying to drive up the price and tax the poop out of ammunition. There’s so many more examples like this that I haven’t even thought of but you add it all this up and unfortunately, this is why the liberals “good guy with a gun”term that they like to call bullshit on is actually in a lot of ways quite true because there’s too many restrictions as it is that prevents the good people from carrying.

Gun violence- violence, using a gun. Easy to understand- why is this a problem? Of course, the guns don't perform the act, but it isn't a bad description.
The arguments for >10 round mags is sometimes out of paranoia, in the event that an armed gang or mob attacks, or if the government actually stages a full-scale attack on the people, or some fringe group that says they're a sovereign citizen militia, like the group that was arrested after a standoff in MA, recently. For the rest, it's a way to avoid needing to change magazines frequently at the range. The problem is that too often, criminals decide that they want to spray lead without aiming, so they find drum magazines, automatic rifles, etc just because they can get them. A recent shooting in Chicago is a great example of this poop-
RAPPER KTS Dre was reportedly shot dead as he was released from jail on Saturday night in an ambush that injured two others. The Chicago musician, whose real name is Londre Sylvester, was shot at l…

The July 4 weekend was insane- 90 shot, 16 dead, last time I saw a report.
Stop the bleeding hearts? Good luck with that- the legal system needs to allow for a good defense, but there are too many being let out with a small bond/bail payment, on their own recognizance, etc. The DAs don't always have much to work with WRT evidence, because of a lack of witnesses or people who don't want to be seen as snitches. Most shootings are unresolved.
People are shooting back, but sometimes, they end up dead, too. One who did was the intended victim of a carjacking by a pinhead who had tried the same only a few minutes about a mile away, but he couldn't get that victim's car to start,at about 7:30AM. The first victim was executed after filling his tank- he was 22, married, described as a great person. The second is an undercover police officer who was just starting his shift. The shooter approached, pulled his gun and they exchanged fire- the officer is still in the hospital, the shooter killed himself. The reason(s) for this haven't been released, but neighbors said the guy was very agitated that morning and punched the fire alarm in his apartment- someone said he had changed his locks the day before.
As far as reciprocity, plenty of states allow carry if they register in some states, others aren't recognized by as many. Looks like Michigan's permit is recognized by more than any other, Vermont's is recognized by the least I saw, but I didn't click on all states. As always, it's up to the carrier to know the map and store their weapon(s) accordingly. There's no excuse for being caught carrying illegally- all someone needs to do is print the map showing reciprocity for their permit.
