Washington Council Enacts Tough Gun-Control Measure

This article is talking about a new gun control law enacted that states, in order to own a firearm, you must under go 5 hours of training, and register your gun every three years. You must also, have a criminal background check every six years. I think this is a good idea. It's not taking the guns away, but more or less taking better preventive measures and precautions to not let these guns fall into the wrong hands.

  1. I agree. This is a good policy, and it helps that it was in D.C. Having our nation's capital do this puts out a good example. I like the idea, you get to keep your gun(s), but the restrictions will help make sure that, legally, rational people own guns.
    Guns don't kill people; People kill people.
