and other savage drugs (Meth, etc.) salvaging our population is all wrong, that we shouldn't be fighting to keep the drugs out but blame the addicts solely, keep the drugs coming?

This is exactly the perverse logic gun makers are using, that let the guns in, sell them, blame the shooters solely.

I think most logical and reasonable people would disagree, that some sort of strict guidelines, strict barriers to ownership of such powerful guns be enacted.
