Gun Ownership declining

for the pro gunners: Whats the solution to ending gun violence in america?

Deal with the real problem: Humans.

Its always been about the humans. Always will be.
Figure out what the base causes of crime are, (lack of education and employment) and work on those.

Figure out what the causes of violent crime are (a little more complicated) and deal with those.

People who are happy and well-adjusted and living fulfilling lives don't run around threatening or murdering strangers.

Also, a great deal of illegal weapon possession and gun crime is directly related to the black market drug industry. You deal with that issue (a big challenge, I'll admit) and you'd see a fair drop in gun crimes. I'd suggest treating it as a health issue and not a crime issue. Filling our prisons has not been an effective solution. We never needed a War On Drugs. We needed to address the mental and physical desire for drugs. People generally do not purchase what they do not want.

There's no one solution. It's multi-part:

1. Work to end gangs
2. Better rehabilitation of criminals; re-offense rate is insane.
3. Improve health industry around mental health - perhaps we move away from prescribing anti-depressants for everything (be more like the UK and prescribe exercise.)

There are of course things to with gun ownership in there, and I think that has to be safety courses or similar - lower the rate of all of these accidental discharges.

I don't care if it's only 1 person in the entire country owning guns, you don't get to abridge their rights just because that person exercising the right scares you. Stop being a fucking pussy and respect others for a minute like a goddamn adult.
