Something I've been wondering about for a while.
The average person (not very well informed) probably thinks that "the government" is trying to regulate and control guns, while the NRA and others say that they have the right to own and use guns as they wish. The more the average person reads, the more they probably understand each side of this issue.
Just wondering - has anyone ever come up with a list of the laws that gun owners would like to have in place? (...and an explanation of how they're different from what we have now?)
To exaggerate quite a bit.... do we (the pro-gun side) want to see every adult walking around with a firearm & holster being just a normal part of what they wear each day?
.....do we (the pro-gun side) want to allow people to be walking around with any kind of weapon, including automatic machine guns... or maybe a BAR?
There is lots of stuff written about what we specifically don't want, and/or what we feel is (un)constitutional, but I don't remember seeing a writeup of what we DO want.
Maybe I should ask this a little differently - I read all the time about proposed laws and regulations that we feel go too far. How would WE write the appropriate laws and regulations, to create the type of world we'd like to live in?
