I've generally been skeptical that tighter gun control laws would do much about these issues, and I still am, but sheesh we gotta try something. Someone lay out some common sense gun legislation for me that they think would make a dent in these shootings. Or if you don't want to that's fine I guess I'll do some research later.
Like I said I still think there are other, more significant factors, that are playing a role in this spike of shootings but this is a nuanced problem and it seems like it might be a good idea to try a holistic approach with common sense gun control being a part of that.
