As an avid gun owner, and target shooter, I get it, I really do. And I'm all for stricter background checks and laws as they apply to gun purchases and ownership. The problem is, we already have a lot of that stuff on the books, and it's not always enforced as we already know from recent events. If we don't have enough people to police and enforce what we already have on the books, adding even more laws and regulations potentially means that even more things will fall through the cracks. Honestly, one of the biggest issues is the state of mental healthcare in the US.
