Yes, require universal background checks, close the gun show loophole, and ban all further sales of assault weapons

Yes, require universal background checks, close the gun show loophole, and ban all further sales of assault weapons.

Yes, but by expanding red flag laws, background checks, and licensing

No, but raise the age requirement to 21

Yes, and there should be a license and title along with the gun

just like automotive matters

Yes, more intense background checks should be used. However, leaving the medical records of patients out of the question as this is a private matter.

No, only ban guns for those that have a mental illness mixed with a history of violence. Guns protect people when law enforcement can't. Close the gun show loophole and require strict training.

No, all the current restrictions on the process of purchasing a gun should be abolished.

No, but the buyer must go through a background check, psychological testing, and training.

The only restrictions should be ACTUAL background checks that happen yearly to ensure no convicts of mentally ill individuals own a gun.

No, and there should be no restrictions on the process of purchasing a gun

No, only ban guns for those that have a mental illness mixed with a history of violence. Guns protect people when law enforcement can't.

Yes, and allow only sidearms, and hunting weaponry.

No restrictions unless a doctor says the individual is mentally ill

No, and repeal the gun control acts of 1986, 1964 and 1934

Yes, and only allow civilian purchase of rubber ammunition with the exception of individuals with a yearly renewed hunting permit(and confiscate regular ammunition and firearms from gun owners that cannot pass a new background check)

Yes, and ban them from public use, and before giving authority figures guns, give them background checks.

I feel like they should be more careful to who they sell them to and make sure it isn't going to turn out in a bad situation.

Yes, by uniformly requiring strict background checks and closing the gun show loophole

Yes, require background checks to ensure mental capability, along with safety training and education for people looking to purchase a firearm, and stricter penalties for gun-related crimes.

Yes, by upholding and strengthening the National Instant Background Check system (NICS) and closing the gun show loophole

Yes, but I believe that there need only be minor tweaks made to the current restrictions

No, but at least there should be background checks to ensure mental capability, along with safety training and education for people looking to purchase a firearm, and stricter penalties for gun-related crimes. Restrictions should only apply to violent criminals, the mentally ill, and those who are under 21 from purchasing a gun.

Yes, require stricter background checks along with a psychological test to ensure mental capability, and provide safety training and education for people looking to purchase a firearm, and increase penalties for gun-related crimes.

Yes and no.
End the gun show loophole.
Do not require a course for a license to own a gun, or else it will be limited by income, time (doctors may be too booked to class the class, for example), and supply of teachers and spaces in each class.
No discrimination on a religious basis. Even Muslim terrorists are likely to lie about their religion or get a gun illegally anyway.
Make sure it is possible for people with mental health issues to get it, provided that their condition is controlled well enough.
People who have gone to a mental hospital before should not be disqualified from having a…  Read more gun, as long as their condition is controlled well enough now. Otherwise, many people who need a mental hospital will not go, and many who needed it because of overwhelm from temporary and possible unusual circumstances, such as abuse, will not be allowed to have it when they are perfectly able.
3D printing of guns should be legal for those who qualify for a gun.
I'd support adding gun use to the required high school curriculum, using fake bullets.
The government should pass laws that help people not be restricted from using their gun when in danger.

no think there should be less requrements

Allow mentally ill to purchase firearms.

yes because you only need to use a gun if your in danger.

no but only if there like big time murderers and they should give them there name and be able to see there criminal record but they just have to check if its like crazy and if not then it stays the same

Reform to a Gun Licensing Program

No, encourage strict background checks, increase penalties for gun-related crimes, and regulate private gun markets instead

No, but at least require background checks and provide safety training for people looking to purchase a firearm, and increase penalties for gun-related crimes as most people who commit gun crimes do so with illegal guns. Restrictions should only apply to criminals, domestic abusers, and the mentally ill.

only if you dont have any warents

No, but at least require background checks and provide safety training for people looking to purchase a firearm, and increase penalties for gun-related crimes, as most people who commit gun crimes do so with illegal guns.
