You know what would be a lot higher? Not letting mentally ill people or domestic abusers, or people who have shown to use them in an unsafe manner around children have access to them. But apparently that is way too far in America.
People who have been convicted of domestic violence are already federally barred from firearms ownership, same for people who have been involuntarily committed, and child endangerment is already also a crime that falls outside the scope of simply firearms.
They are regulated.
There is a difference between regulated and highly regulated?
Crimes like straw purchasing or lying on a NICs form are punishable by 10yr in prison, federal prison in some cases. I’d say that’s pretty “high.”

Not for long.
That’s not what I said, I said a history of mental illness.
But it doesn’t include handgun ownership, which you know full well. And that’s what we’re talking about here.
But since you are blatantly misrepresenting what I said and being incredibly dishonest, I don’t think this conversation needs to continue.
