If you have a gun in your house that is designated for home protection and it doesn't have a flashlight... You might be a dumbass.

You can buy a gun faster than lunch in a lot of places. I would favor a much longer wait for any firearm and ammo.
yeah, i've applauded BS on the idea he put forth. The discussion has moved on from that and now he's stuck in this "is a doughnut an assault weapon if I assault you with it?" line of reasoning. I think you can see how that sort of thing serves no purpose other than to muddy the waters and gets us stuck in the negative feedback loop you've correctly identified.
it must be attached to whatever you're attacking someone with...be it a gun or a doughnut.
Lock your doors, get a dog, have a security system. B&E crimes are mostly opportunity crimes. Eliminate the opportunity.
All much better options than rushing to get to the safe, open the safe, inevitably fumbling around with loading the gun because you may have training but no real world experience, firing a bunch of rounds in an adrenaline panic that wound or kill your kids because bullets are gonna fly through your drywall.
^carfaxes stolen from his employers. Someone paid for that shit and it sure as fuck wasn’t his subscription.
Yeah, we don’t want people to see what they are shooting at.

Your solution?
Prediction:
Ultimately any changes we see will be knee jerk reactions by politicians, which will have little, if any, impact on these issues.
McFeeble in action.

40% of convicted murderers had used alcohol.
If you have alcohol in your home, it's pretty much a coin flip that you are going to murder someone.
^When are you going to murder your wife and kids, Beer Drinker?
If we are looking at preserving the population, what are we doing about
Illegal drug use 750,000
Cigarettes 480,000
Medical errors 250,000
Alcohol 95,000
Car accidents 43,000
Total: 1,618,000 annual deaths
Exactly. Think of how much harder it would be for mass shooters?
I'll take an initial stab:
Illegal drugs...you've answered your own question there...if you can't figure it out let me know and I'll explain it to you.
Cigs - motherfucking massively successful lawsuit against tobacco companies that paid out several hundreds of millions of dollars to the aggrieved. Additionally years long campaign to reduce their use.
Medical errors - hey, if you want to regulate the gun industry as much as the medical profession is I'm all for it.
Alcohol - 21 yr/old to drink, wanna do that for guns too? need an ID to buy as well.
Car accidents - need to be 16 or older to operate in most states, need a license, need to carry insurance, need to register your car, etc. Yes, lets do that with guns too.
You can see how the crowd starts to embolden each other.
It's pretty fascinating to watch the middle school style crew gather to pick on the unpopular kid.
No doubt a learned behavior from a shitty childhood or some other trauma growing up.
Can't say the same for myself or my kids. We live a charmed life.
Maybe we should make the drugs legal? The whole illegal/ban thing isn't working.
You're sounding desperately dumb
