The Gun Control Laws The United States Needs

In order to purchase a firearm, an individual must do the following:

01. Attend three month class on firearms

02. Pass a written test when the class has been completed

03. Achieve at least 95% accuracy during a shooting-range test

04. Pass a Mental Health evaluation at a hospital

05. Pass a background check in which the government digs into their criminal record

06. Pass a background check involving interviews with friends and family

07. Only shotguns and Air Rifles may be purchased, no handguns

08. New magazines can only be purchased by trading in empty ones

09. When a gun owner dies, their relatives must surrender the deceased members firearms

10. Every three years, the individual must pass the above tests and investigations
Sorry, but the Constitution says otherwise.

The Constitution does not say otherwise. Regulation of gun sales is constitutional.
the government isn't allowed to make it overly burdensome to excessive a right
been ruled that why with voting been ruled that way with abortion

Gun rights are not only protected by the 2nd amendment, but the 4th, 5th, 9th, and 10th as well.
It should be pretty clear from reading the founders opinions, that they wanted citizen soldiers and absolutely no federal weapons jurisdiction at all.

Well, that idea died long ago. The United States military has jurisdiction over a massive quantities of weapons, the overwhelming majority of which, no civilian is allowed to own.

There are no citizen soldiers as defined by 18th century standards.
 
Again, the fate of world freedom is on the brink, and American gun ownership is the only thing holding back the oppressors.

.

Japan is a democracy, a free country. But when it comes to firearms, they have the same laws that are proposed here. Freedom is not about gun ownership.

We should focus on trying to keep weapons from hate mongers not educating them.

1. Military style weapons should be banned and any other variants should be banned.

2. Magazines should be limited to 15 rounds maximum.

3. Background checks should include social media posts

I assume you know that ALL firearms are designed for military use, or were derived from those designed for military use. So, what you're saying is, you want a complete ban?

No, it is not constitutional for the existence of ANY federal weapons legislation.
The 2nd amendment does not prevent state or local gun laws, but it does totally and completely prevent any federal ones.

No it does not. The Supreme Court has said otherwise.

military-style weapons which are automatic weapons are already banned
unless you are referring to semi-automatics which then would be unconstitutional according to DC vs Heller supreme court decision

The Japanese are much more of one culture. They have their ways like most people of the world. But they are much more respectful and clean up behind themselves just to start. There is more garbage in the streets of a few blocks of Baltimore then in the whole city of Tokyo. I always love the comparisons when it is in the favor of Progs. Progs hate the whites and then compare the socialism that seems to work in nations affected. Tell that to the nations of Central America, the Islands, Mexico, South America, Africa, parts of Europe and many parts of Asia where it does not.

Nyet, comrade, you must self-flagellate on your own.

On top of that, Japan relies on our military for protection.

Half the world relies on our military for protection.

Our military is under the control of our government, and WE THE PEOPLE keep it in check because we are armed.

I am SICK of this FACT being ignored and dismissed.

Yes, it would do something to prevent criminals, etc. from obtaining firearms. Because if they weren't in circulation or available in this country, where would the bad guys get one?
They'd steal them. Or make them.
You can't steal what isn't there.
Law enforcement won't have guns? The military wont have guns?
People can't make guns?
Hillbillies can make 'shine, but it's still illegal.

That is sort of the point, in that making moonshine illegal only increased the problem.
It increased the price, made it more profitable, and resulted in higher stakes that caused more deaths.
That is why we ended Prohibition, because it caused a huge spike in murders,. as well as an increased rate of alcohol consumption.
Government is foolish when it destroys its own credibility like that.
People will deliberately do out of their way to violate laws they feel are wrong.

No, total alcohol consumption did decline during prohibition. What increased was the violence associated with such laws and people decided to the added violence was not worth it.

Laws restricting gun ownership in this case will reduce gun violence. It will over time reduce the number of guns in circulation.

Gun ownership is on the decline. In 1977, 50% of households in the United States owned a gun. In 2014, only 31% of households owned a gun. Hopefully, by the start of the next century, less than 1% of U.S. households will own guns, and this case only Shotguns or Air Rifles.

Give it time, but sensible Gun Control will be introduced! Those without guns have the numbers behind them!

Only 31% of households in the United States have guns. They don't keep anything in check, let alone the U.S. military that would easily slaughter them in a shoot out.

And, as household gun ownership declines, SHOOTINGS increase?

My car wouldn't start. So I replaced the radio, checked the air in the tires, and washed it. I knew it wouldn't fix my car. I knew it wouldn't address the problem.

But I had to do something.
Oh, OP's solution is not window dressing. It would work because it actually DOES address the problem. At least the weapon part. People urging us to also address the motivation of the shooters are also right. It is not just one solution or the other. It is both, and more besides.

The OP's ideas are a pipe dream. Nothing in that list would do anything to prevent criminals, street thugs, drug dealers, and gang-bangers from obtaining firearms.

But nice try.
Yes, it would do something to prevent criminals, etc. from obtaining firearms. Because if they weren't in circulation or available in this country, where would the bad guys get one?

Guns aren't readily available in Mexico, Colombia, and El Salvador either, yet they have very high firearms death rates per capita.

So where do they get them?

And we won the Vietnam War, and we're NOT still in Afghanistan.

You're sounding pretty uninformed right now.
