Legally, yes. Morally? Probably not.
Should we legislate morality? As a Christian, I am 100% behind this.
Are you suggesting that the entire world except for gun-loving Republicans are left-leaning? I assume so since you point out that the common sense laws they have enacted to practically eliminate gun deaths is a "left talking point". I just want to clarify.

Hint: It's not. It took Uber-Conservative Australia exactly two weeks after a mass-shooting event in 1996 to pass legislation that began to restrict the sale and ownership of similar firearms. Just a few items from an extremely dense document are the prohibition of automatic and semiautomatic assault rifles, institute a temporary gun buyback program that almost immediately removed 650,000 assault weapons out of public circulation, mandate licensing and registration, demonstrate a “genuine need” for specific firearms and take an actual firearm safety course. Aside from licensing owners, gun manufacturers as well as sellers are heavily regulated and held to account. You can't tell me that in a country of lawyers, run by lawyers we can't draft meaningful legislation that actually makes a dent in gun-related deaths. They can pool their resources together and figure out how to slowly strip away funding and remove power from healthcare legislation, but they can't figure out a way to reduce the number of firearms that are in the hands of people who might use them to commit crimes?

It's not a left talking point. It's an informed talking point.
I western Civilization, yes that is what I am suggesting.

I don't think Australia's buy back did what you think it did to lower death.
Is Australia really that 'uber conservative'?
The Australian citizen might be regretting disarmed with the government over reach going on right now but maybe not. It is amazing how many people the world over puts blind faith in their politicians and enjoy a boot on their neck.
And no, it is a left talking point. This thread is a perfect example.
