I can see how that could work in many ways.
As crazy as it sounds.. with that logic, and only to be fair: what if they legalized all access to firearms too? Made a place for would be mass shooters to go, pickup an AR, and blast a classroom full of ballistic mannequins. In a controlled environment. Just like giving the addicts clean drugs and a safe place to shootup, they give people a safe place to shootup a crowd of people. It would probably stop the majority of actual mass shootings, which make up what, like 1% of the gun violence data?

I might be crazy, but at least i'm not paranoid all the time. My kid is always safe at home, I have no cell phone to be bothered by, no bank accounts.. life is pretty good. I can sense BS and bad vibes from miles away, and really don't worry at all about the amount of violence in the world, or anything like that. I get that its a messed up world, and try not to judge anyone. I don't blame anyone for wanting to escape reality. Not even the shooters..

A bit OT re: above post.
Gun control and Social health mitigation regarding opioids are totally separate and distinct issues. Issues that are not, it appears, being taken care of by many elected officials in the States.
Here's our framework as of now. It's not perfect by any means, but were trying to mitigate this issue. I have personal motives to post this evenn though it doesn't specifically affect me or my family. Some friends on the other hand.....

I though the majority of gun violence was over drug deals..

Naw, just confiscate all the guns, 90% of people will turn them in and only about 40% of people own one in America, a large number are concentrated in relatively few hands. Those that won't turn them in can be easily identified by $10,000 fines and law suits by their neighbors, like abortion in Texas. Use technology like robocops and if they shoot, use a drone to drop a 50 pound bomb right through to the basement bunker where they are holed up with their arsenal. They won't waste much time on them, robodog will come out of the rubble holding their gun in it's mouth pincer, with their cold dead hand still attached...
So much for the rugged induvial blowing away ATF officers, robots can deal with the simpletons, they will be among the first victims of AI! The guys will be in the van parked down the road listening to the racket, video drones will record it for entertainment, robots against guns might be a popular show...

What !are you trying tell me the state will not protect ,feed or even love me ?
Just look at n. korea or even china .china has billion of people they probably know a thing or two how to protect,feed and love it citizens!
Oh education! there wouldn't be any bias on how to educate citizens ( the state) to be excellent followers.
To solve school shootings.can not solve until the state get off everybody's back.
To protect children at school .not saying this is a answer just suggesting.
hating and dividing will never get any problems solved
why one door? Two doors.
No teacher should be carrying in school at all times .
Trained and mentally evaluated teachers every 3mos? Paid .they can have access to a safe contain weapon firearm and tablet like device .
Safe can not be accessible unless a system like shotspotter ( a system that can identify gun shots and location by using microphones and sound triangulates).to allow safe to be accessible.
Now trained individuals can l either neutralize threat or protect and remove children to safety.
My personal belief why these happen is cause by extremely over bearing city,county,state and federal taxation, regulations of it citizens into extreme servitude . people can not afford to properly have time or money to be a parents without the state help ( a very bias and unhealthy environment)

I kind of figured that was the future that we are in store for. Just like George orwells 1984, there will be thought police (unarmed but in full bulletproof body armor) that go around and drag people away for even thinking something that is against the rules. Snitched on by their neighbors. Your own thought's and beliefs won't even belong to you anymore..

Naw it will just be limited to dragging lunatics from bunkers, the nut cases. I mean why waste a life on such a fear driven pathetic loser? If society eventually wants to get rid of guns, this is how they will do it, you might get a hundred bucks for turning in your gun, or you might get a fine that will move you out of your house and into a black neighborhood, unarmed! Robots will deal with the hard cases, not many will have 50 pound bombs dropped on their houses, not much need really, robots can already do amazing things and over the next decade, they will deal with idiots too. Most of the time it will be tear gas and a drone will taze the dumb fuck on his lawn.

Aren't they already at this point in Texas? I thought that a "snitch" law of some sort was just passed.

Thanks Texas! $10,000 reward, if ya snitch on a gun, instant cash just call 180 GET THE-GUNS. They can include it with the future federal law regulating guns out of existence in America. Everyday the gun lobby makes new enemies and enemies accumulate over time and sometimes the pendulum can go from one extreme to the other.

After WW1 America had prohibition until 1933, men like to drink and bars were big into politics, yet after women were enfranchised they had a movement similar to the NRA and congress lived in fear of them. They even amended the constitution to ban alcohol and there were more male drinkers back then, than male gun owners today. So radical change can happen, it took the coming of FDR and the new deal to end prohibition in America.
Unlike Alcohol guns won't have the staying power like an addictive drug and the manufacture of guns and ammo is technologically dependent and a ban on firearms would work and work much more quickly than many predict. 40% of Americans own guns and most of them are concentrated with a small number of individuals. It would not be like Al Capone with gun prohibition, guns would fade from the culture except in movies and we have movies everywhere else and few guns.
The point is radical change can happen in America and women are a political force to be reckoned with, when they get the wind in their sails about things like abortion and school kids being slaughtered. It has been done before and it could be done again, attitudes change over time and if nothing is done, a radical solution will be found, one way or another.

Well don't get me wrong. I'm all for responsible gun owners to be accommodated with appropriate laws that might otherwise not be so accommodating to those with societal or mental issues. I was lucky enough when I was getting my FAC to go to one of my instructors (buddy of mine) friends house to learn how they load ammo and a number of other neat gun aficionado nuances and tricks of the trade. It was a fantastic teaching mechanism.
Just seems to me that absolute fucking retards are able to secure these weapons and tech without a sniff from authority in some places.

If you think assault looking rifles are bad now, wait till you see all the improvised weapons that the violent people and gangs will start making. 3d printed Rail guns, potato guns, microwave blasters, deadly blow darts, paintball guns that shoot all the endless distributed amounts of dirty needles off the sidewalk, super soaker 1000's full of liquid LSD...
You'll probably wish it was an AR instead

I'll take my chances, it requires brains and imagination and they are in short supply among that crowd, zipguns will be popular again, get caught with one and the fine will be life changing. If there is profit, then imagination comes into play, technology too. There would be little profit and a lot of trouble in making guns, it would be like making bombs and any moron can do that with internet instructions. If there are no reload powder and primers, it will make making bombs a lot harder for most people too. It won't be a perfect world, just a better one without guns and a lot more actual freedom, freedom from fear too.If you think assault looking rifles are bad now, wait till you see all the improvised weapons that the violent people and gangs will start making. 3d printed Rail guns, potato guns, microwave blasters, deadly blow darts, paintball guns that shoot all the endless distributed amounts of dirty needles off the sidewalk, super soaker 1000's full of liquid LSD...
