Did you just ignore the part where I said "in the US".

I won't engage with someone this disingenuous and this is not my first runin with you being totally uninformed.

If you think they will do that sort of widespread gun ban/buyback program at a federal level in the US I got a bridge to sell you.

You can argue along two tracks here:

  1. It is not viable in the US to implement gun control

  2. Gun control is a bad thing or is not effective at reducing shootings

Clearly (1) is correct but we are on a communist website here, so I'm pretty used to dreaming of a world that is totally untenable in the US. 2 is quite a bit more doubtful. Like guns are the #1 killer of under-18s in this country. That's a huge fuckin price to pay for doing some kind of revolutionary cosplay.
