I've said it before and I'm not the first to say it: The problem isn't the guns; it's the bullets. We sell ammunition in WalMart. We won't sell firecrackers or bottle rockets, but 9mm rounds? no problem. The gun is just a tool. The weapon is the bullet.

Nothing in the constitution talks about a right to own enough ammo to take on a battalion. Make em $50/bullet, registered in a database. Easier to follow the trail of bullet casings than the gun that shot them.

Just a thought.

So basically just make them so expensive that only the government/gov agencies & the rich elites of the country have access to them. Might not be such a good plan.

^ Agreed.

The bullets aren't the problem either.... its the few dummies that misuse their guns.

Fine. Put em gumball machines for all I care. But that doesn't change the fact that they should be registered to the purchaser.

The few dummies that misuse their guns? Dummy isn't the word I'd use to describe them.
