re: #33 Eclectic Cyborg

I’m thinking maybe we start small by requiring everyone who buys a gun to take a basic safety course. No restrictions on what kind of weapons can be purchased or anything, just the safety training.

It’s a pretty weak argument that such a requirement would infringe anyones right to have a gun.

Of course we’d need to figure out who would pay for said training…

I’d insist on some type of insurance for any weapon purchased.

Wingnuts just love that stupid ‘there are drunk drivers so let’s ban cars’ argument. Fine. Then let’s require gun owners to buy insurance for every new weapon, and a yearly renewal of that registration. And if a weapon is there one year and gone the next (without paperwork to show where it went), then big fines for the seller are in order, IMO.
