We can uphold the 2nd Amendment and work to reduce gun violence at the same time.
We all agree that reducing gun violence is a good thing.
-
We need to support the rights of legal, lawful gun owners.
-
We need to discuss and address the roots of anger and violence in America, including:
-
The loss of the American dream and the rise of hopelessness.
-
The rise of political division and extremism in American politics.
-
Lack of access to mental health care.
-
An erosion of traditional values in America like honesty, common decency, and love for one another.
-
Media bosses willing to bend the truth in whatever direction that suits them.
-
-
We need to be able to speak freely and study all possible solutions regarding gun violence.
-
Increase research funding and remove limits on policy recommendations regarding the causes and solutions of gun violence.
-

Background checks

Establish and adequately fund a universal background check system for all persons purchasing a firearm.
