Put guns under state jurisdiction
Three hundred million guns and many millions of gun owners. This is where we are, and the numbers are growing.
Most gun owners are responsible and competent. They are not our enemy. They are fellow citizens and friends. Their strongly held views must be respected by those of us who may disagree.
Gun owners tell us they understand and practice gun safety. They say they know how to reconcile the Second Amendment and a gun-safe society.
So, let’s take them at their word and give them a major role in developing a gun-safe nation.
A model for accomplishing this objective could be the way we handle another dangerous instrumentality: the automobile.
