8. We've discussed & discussed & discussed. Since I made an issue of BLOOMBERG's

non-discussion-discussion, I should put my suggestions out there the way I'm gigging him for his NOT providing solutions.

#1 - It's been discussed to High-Olympus forever, like the MidEast, and it ain't that difficult. The parameters of reasonable conclusions are out there. Since I haven't participated in the guns/MidEast eternal discussions, I'm no expert, but common sense solutions should take all of a couple of days' seminar to arrive at.

#2 - My own off-the-top-of-my-head / if-I-were-king plan: No universal ban on weapons. Only access to enough firepower as needed for personal self-defense and sports. Only enough to fell the biggest sports target - a deer or a bear if a bear is attacking you or whatever is attacking you. No more than that. Driver's license type instruction and testing and registration required. Mental health history clearance. Criminal infractions involving weapons = lifetime ban. Add anything here that fits the general direction of this simplistic outline.

The point is there has been ENOUGH discussion. It ain't that hard.

O.K., my intent here is not to participate in gungeon discussions, only to offer my ideas since I'm demanding that BLOOMBERG offer his. End of *my* gun discussion.
