Instead of guns, why not regulate ammo? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

So yeah you can fire a bullet so many different ways, a rusty nail and hammer will do the trick. Isn't the real problem the frickin bullet?

I swear in Sweden or something, you can take a gun home but ammo is only sold and consumed at the range and not for taking home.

Sure, you can make this a hollistic approach regulating guns and ammo, but the ammo seems to be the bigger issue here. You can make guns easy peasy, but ammo is much harder to manufacture and easier to regulate.

Full on gun nutter nonsense. I grew up poor, I know what happens when you put a gun in a young man's hands. You are fucking clueless, you truly are about the horrors of gun proliferation. We have tens of millions of civilians that know to duck and cover at any given moment because of constant violence. They live in a continuous state of stress.

The US has been in a constant state of extreme violence because of gun proliferation. Over a million women have been shot by their partner, but don't worry your solution is they shoot back. Double homicide assured.

I will never forget this family whose father came downstairs and blew his brains out in front of them on Christmas Day...so many stories of tragedy always because of one easily accessible tool. If it were any other product it would have to be safe, but not firearms. At any rate, come back when you grow the fuck up sir.
