Good post, as always! We must be as cautious about the 45 virus as the C19 one. Yes, there is hope on the horizon, but we have to continue to take preventative and precautionary measures until the vaccine is fully rolled out, and even then caution is advisable, as the virus can return.

Good post, as always! We must be as cautious about the 45 virus as the C19 one. Yes, there is hope on the horizon, but we have to continue to take preventative and precautionary measures until the vaccine is fully rolled out, and even then caution is advisable, as the virus can return. The 45 virus is every bit as deadly and insidious. Many people are asymptomatic, and do not show flag rash or gun fever. Protect yourselves, keep safe distancing. Above all, stay healthy!
Don’t make the mistake of expecting radical gun control measures, though. There are many many responsible people who want to own a gun or two, but are not fire breathing 2d Amendment militia types. Many, especially in rural and remote areas actually do feel a real need to have them them for home protection. They must be recognized and accommodated. They must.
We need responsible gun owners to come forward with sensible gun control measures. I would expect some kind of licensing, akin to a driver’s license: training required, with penalties for misuse including loss of license in extreme cases. None of this craziness allowing guns to toddlers. If people who know guns won’t speak up, then we city dwellers who see guns only as murder tools fight alone against the guns everywhere lobby...
Sadly, the "they are taking our guns" crowd has infected many of the decent legal gun owners - the ones who see the idiocy of having to have an assault weapon!
That's exactly why the "decent legal gun owners" need to speak out, to articulate a path forward that regulates guns to reduce carnage in a way most gun owners can understand and support.
Yes, recognize and accommodate, but within reason. Most of those responsible people in my neck of the North Woods support most of the proposed gun laws, including not allowing guns in our State Capitol building.

“Flag rash”! “Gun fever”. I like that!

Great points!

Yes. Ok. Sufficient for protection. Not attack weapons, AK 45s, machine guns, etc!
