Americans' obsession with guns are killing us. Other countries don't have this problem, why do we insist on clinging to 19th century justice and neanderthal attitudes?

Very true, but you certainly do.
Are you saying that if some violence happened to your family and you did nothing to prevent it, it would not bother you? I think it would. The problem is that this is not Japan or Australia. We already have hundreds of millions of guns in circulation. I am not opposed to serious gun laws. I just doubt how we b would implement them or what we would implement.
"Fewer rounds in a magazine" does nothing. It does not keep guns out of the hands of killers.

I'm saying that guns are not the answer.
I don't have a gun. My son doesn't have a gun. My parents don't have guns. My brothers don't have guns. Most of the people I know don't have guns. This "only guns will keep us safe" mentality is insane, and I won't be a party to it.
Fewer rounds in a magazine reduces the number of fatalities in spree shootings. You're quite simply wrong about this.
And I really don't get this "I'm all for gun laws but they're too hard to implement."
B.S. It just takes the courage to start.

No, it just means they carry more magazines.

I wish it were that simple.

Wondering how law enforcement can track down who owned a gun when they find one used in a murder? Usually they can’t, thanks to the NRA—and you really won’t believe the Kafkaesque agency of sketchy paper files in West Virginia that currently exists: https://t.co/RuCGHIT5LC

The Stroudsburg Area School Board voted against accepting a nearly $5,000 grant from the NRA for its rifle team, with one school director calling it "dirty money."
