Gun nut here: Not a Texan and also not really pissed off about this. I also think it probably won't make much of a difference and home-made firearms have been around for well over 100 years so if someone really wants to make one and doesn't care about regulations, they're just going to make one anyways.

I agree, what I classify as a gun but is someone who needs 30 different rifles and more than one handgun, dont hunt and is afraid they will be attacked by anyone if they don’t have one or more guns on their person at one time, just to clarify.

I’m not anti-gun, I just don’t see a need for so many guns in one household whether legal or not. I honestly don’t think ghost guns and kits should be regulated some how, and serial numbers help obtain this

Do you get equally upset my people that collect knives, old tools, or cars?

All of those can be dangerous too.

Ah yes, nobody talks about the daily news of someone killing dozens of people with knives, old tools, and/or cars! We should absolutely not worry about guns while these clearly significantly more dangerous weapons are allowed to proliferate so easily!

According to the cdc, about 42,000 people died from car accidents.

In 2021, the worst year for gun deaths, about 48,000 people died from guns.

So yes, cars are just about as Dangerous as guns.

We need to ban all these maniacs from owning full automatic transmission vehicles.
