I am a 36-year-old gun owner. I started target shooting at the age of 5 and hunting at the age of 14. At the age of 21 I joined the NRA and became am NRA certified shooting instructor and spent three years teaching shooting skills with the Boy Scouts of America. Not surprisingly, I am a very strong proponent of the right of Americans to own firearms. What some people do find surprising is that I am also a strong proponent of stricter gun laws in this country...Nothing disgusts me more than gun owners for gun control. There's a term for such creatures...
The only realistic solution is to enact strict federal laws that require background checks for the purchase of all firearms, to have mandatory waiting periods for purchasing firearms, to federally regulate ALL gun dealers in the country and to limit the number of guns that can be purchased by an individual during a given time period, such as per month or per year.
