.....I would be fine with non-concealed carry, BUT..........a big BUT.......if I were in charge of the US, I would require all guns sold to civilians to be SINGLE-SHOT (EVEN including pistols). That way there could be very few MASS MURDERS.
The problem with this is that all multi shot guns would then be owned by criminals. If you think that by passing a law, we are going to prevent crimes, you're wrong. Laws don't prevent crimes, they simply define what crime is and provide punishment for breaking the law.

We already have laws against killing people. Do you think that gang bangers and other criminals are going to follow the law and only get single shot guns? if they are willing to break other laws then they'll be willing to break this one.


Does anyone think that multi shot guns wouldn't be available? Just look at states like California where they have laws restricting magazine capacity. They still have mass murders by people carrying more capacity than the law allows.

Does anyone know if this proposed law is going to allow open carry or would it be concealed only?
