Should the government put more restrictions on gun ownership?

NO.

They should try Enforcing the already 9000 laws about gun ownership on the books first.

How do we know those laws don't work when the Government fails to enforce them?

Why do they think that 26 MORE laws will do the trick and solve everything?

Really? We pay these clowns $174,000/year and this is how they think?

And we complain about Corporate Compensation being too much.

They don't have the constitutional right to restrict gun ownership and instead should require it. A well armed population has far less problems with all kinds of crimes including gun crimes. With all the terrorism in Israel no one tries to kill people with guns.Why? They wouldn't live long enough to kill many because everyone there knows how to use a gun.

Making something against the law will not always stop it.. examples.. War on drugs,Drunk driving!!. If guns were ever against the law than only the bad guys would have them..
I also feel schools should have guards
We could use the money we give to countries that hate us,our children are more important!!
Having a gun will not help all the time but being defenseless will never help..
===================================
Can you ask the bad guy to wait while I call 911???
===================================
Isn't it better to have a gun and not need it than to need it and not have it!!
A gun is like a parachute. If you need one, and don't have one, you'll probably never need one again."

I think they should enforce the laws we already have first! Take the have you ever been adjudicated question on the form regarding mental problems. Since a lot of jurisdictions report only criminal records, cases that involve mental illness don't get reported. So if a person that spent five years institutionalized tries to buy a gun. His record is clean. He or she can lie, and get by! If we enforced what we already have, it would help one heck of a lot.

Why do you only want to restrict the freedoms guaranteed by the 2nd amendment? How about all the others? Why is it that so many liberals are so free with limiting rights and ignoring responsibilities?
