Well said.
And a desire to solve practical problems by approaching it with an "anything that actual works" approach.

Parents should put trigger locks on their weapons no matter where they hide them. Kids are curious and inventive on how they can reach places. And the ammunition should also be locked up in a different place but probably close by if an intruder arrives.

And make gun safety classes mandatory for people who are new gun owners.

The only part of the "good old days" that I think would be welcomed back is the cooperation we saw across polirical and class boundries to get things done that needed doing.
