A lot of US gun owners are in support of common sense gun laws. It’s enough that some gun owners have started a gun lobbying group to oppose the NRA which is a pretty terrible organization. I’ve owned guns in the past, I don’t anymore, don’t know if I ever will again, but I used to, and I still think people should be allowed to own guns, but the lack of restrictions is absurd, We pretty immediately need big changes to domestic abuse laws, and bail opportunities, as some huge percentage of murders in the US are domestic abusers out on bail. Red Flag laws where someone who has been suspected of planning violent shootings can’t gain access to firearms. much stricter laws on background checks and closing third party sale loopholes entirely, and I also think mandatory gun safes are a good idea, If you’re not home, it should be entirely inaccessible. none of these laws would effect the majority of gun owners, as bad as it is now with gun violence, still the vast majority of gun owners are never going to endanger anyone. But doing nothing is insane. I’ve met zero people who shout “people kill people not guns” who isn’t a jackass who’s scared someone will take his toys away.
