midwest
at least that was an honest answer
you are promoting confiscation of all semi automatic weapons
which brings on the next point
compliance and violation of civil liberties
after sandy hook, nys passed the safe act, the most sweeping anti AW ban in the country
part of that ban included the obligation to register existing AW
50K weapons were registered out of an estimated 1 milion (5% compliance rate, from a forbes article)
which means hundreds of thousands of previously law abiding NYers instantly became felons
now you want a total semi auto ban. What do you think will happen if the govt suddenly tries to confiscate all those weapons. Worst case scenario civil war especially in places like Texas. Best case (assuming a low percentage of compliance) is half the US suddenly become felons. And do you think gun violence will end?
fact: the vast majority of gun deaths in the US are from handguns
So if you balance these factors which is the better of two evils?
We may come to an enlightened time where we voluntarily give up our weapons. But govt confiscation will unleash heartache on millions of families and what gives us the right to cause that chaos? your assumption that death will stop knocking on peoples door when all guns are gone?
