It is true that there are some gun reforms that ought not to worry gun owners. It seems almost everybody, including — reluctantly — the NRA, thinks we should do something about bump stocks, which turn semi-automatic guns into basically machine guns and contributed to the bloodbath in Las Vegas.
I'd go further: there are "assault-style" weapons that are grossly over the top for hunting or self-defense. Background checks and other safeguards, like the ones we put on drivers, could be implemented without unduly burdening responsible gun owners. |

TO REMEMBER |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
