    So basically… Fix every other nearly impossible to fix problem first before even deciding to do anything about the actual guns, if anything at all?

    And to be clear, by impossible to fix, I mean politically, not that these problems are actually unsolvable.

        So you’re plan is to try and tackle something that’s written into the constitution… that’s your goal?

        You mean like slavery?

        I didn’t specify a plan one way or another. I just think it’s crazy that the talking points you presented seem pretty clearly designed to just kick this issue down the road, cause at least that way you still get to have your guns.

        And believe me, solving all those things you mentioned would be great. But why not also try and do something about the major gun issues at the same time too?

            We do have a societal problem. We also very much have a gun problem.

            And proposing all these other things you know won’t get accomplished is a way to shift all the responsibility away from the gun issue itself.

            And you aren’t being emotional about even the thought of some more gun control or anything to even tackle that issue head on? Come on.

                I personally didn’t propose any of those policies. I genuinely don’t know what would work best. I just think you are being really transparent in treating the guns themselves as having nothing to do with the issue of gun violence.

                I think everything you were saying would be great to accomplish. It’s just really disingenuous to propose them knowing there is a slim chance any of them will happen while completely ignoring the actual guns, just because you want to keep your guns.

                    And most other countries also have much stricter gun control laws too.

                    We could work on those things and the gun problem too.

                    So again, you are being very transparent by completely disregarding the guns as if they somehow aren’t part of the gun violence problem.

                    Either way. I think this is where I drop out of this. We are going in circles and while I agree we should work on the things you mention, we clearly just disagree about the actual guns themselves. And of course neither of us are actually in a direct position to make changes to any of those things, I assume. So you have a good one.
