I completely understand and agree, but I think the cat is out of the bag on this one. There's simply too many guns to round them all up, too much support for gun ownership to push any major bans, and congress/ATF is absolutely impotent when it comes to legislating them which results in our current problems.

Achievable goals I think include throwing the book at straw buyers, gun owners who fail to secure their weapons resulting in an incident of injury or death, and holding law enforcement more responsible. How many times have the police or FBI said "he was on our radar"? Plus that one school shooter, fuck if I even remember which, had contact with police 30 times and was banned from carrying a backpack on campus because they were explicitly afraid he'd shoot up the place. Yet his NICS check was clean and bought a gun legally.

TL;DR: Expand checks, document more shit, punish cops for failing to protect people (even though they legally don't have to).

Cleaning that up will make a decent dent, but the real killer is mental health. I think 60% of gun deaths in America are suicide? I'm not even going to make any suggestions there because we're so fucked on that front that nothing will change.
