He is pro gun and drinking a lot of the koolaid.
But he also has kids who have been threatened by people with guns. Of course, he has a bigger gun, so he thinks it's not a full issue.
ANYWAY.
I had mentioned gun insurance to him at one point and he didn't hate it. I think he will especially like the part about the tax write off as it is a nod to the 2nd Amendment and those who are responsibly and respectfully practicing their right to have guns.
Probably since the police froze and couldn't unlock a door to save those kids until a border patrol guy ran to the school from the barber shop and pushed everyone into action because they were dealing with a kid who had an automatic weapon and over 1,500 bullets in extended magazines, I think I can talk to him about at least limiting those by special permit so those people sign an agreement to NOT use them in this fashion and are therefore guilty in a court of law if they plan or carry out such a crime. As they are violating the permit process and intend to use deadly force.
If they plan it, they are violating the permit terms and must surrender their guns and pay fines.
If they carry it out, the fact that they signed an agreement to not do that shows they were intentionally breaking the law and have no way to plead not guilty.
GIVE law enforcement and the courts the power to deal with these offenders instead of arming the people against the law.
Average citizens with guns for the most part are not going to shoot up the neighborhood if you don't let them have their guns while they are drunk or crazy.
Just like taking the car keys away from a person who has had to much to drink is a temporary solution for a temporary problem if it doesn't happen week after week, then keeping guns away from people who are over reacting with the urge to commit gun violence as a way to deal with life's stress, is also keeping that person and others safe from potentially life altering behavior.
