Due process does not always require a hearing before court action. There are emergency injunctions, ex parte protective orders, temporary restraining orders, certain classes of summary process. When a guy owns assault weapons and is hearing voices, due process can wait a couple weeks.

Ouch my ligaments.

No more murderin' for meeee

Yes, and again there was no enforcement, no gun control anywhere can work without enforcement.

Is every hobbyist clay shooter a good person? Is their hobby worth the lives of innocent people? Not to mention how easy it is to snap and turn bad. It sucks for the good hobbyists but idc if it means less dead children, they can shoot clay with bbs.

Background checks simply don't work well enough to catch everyone. Mental health issues are hard to spot, it's not like you can just do a blood test.

Honestly, there are soooo many ways to entertain ourselves in our society, people that center their whole lives around guns need to grow the fuck up imo. Fuck the hobby.

Dude you need a to pass a test and have a license for loads of hobbies, people still do them. Even just driving a regular car which is considered a near necessity in some places, we acknowledge that it's dangerous so you need to pass a test and can have your licence taken away if you are a danger to others.

It is already federal law that any gun sale going through a federally licensed firearms dealer (FFL) is required to run a check using the FBI's National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICs). So initial already yes, updated "if they buy more guns," but still.

Private sales are legal in some states but if you sell to a prohibited possessor you're in deep shit so most people will only do so with a CCW card to show you've been NICs checked and it hasn't been confiscated.

Sounds like you've let the gun lobby tell you what gun control is.

For example in Australia, to buy a gun you first need a firearms license that is granted once you've established that you know how to safely handle a firearm, are not a danger to yourself or others, are not a known criminal and have been a member of a club or range for at least 6 months without creeping people out.

From there, your new guns must be registered and you must be able to produce them on request. Handguns and semi-automatic guns are more heavily restricted, in line with them being far more dangerous to the public.

So do you know what you do if you don't have a license and want to go clay shooting? You book a session at the range and show up.

No license, no background checks, no knowledge of firearms required.

Because do you want to know the dirty little secret the gun lobby has been hiding from you? Gun control advocates don't actually give a shit if people own or use guns if they never kill, maim or traumatise anyone.

Systems like the one above massively reduce the supply of guns to criminals, the number of mass shootings, accidental deaths, suicides, domestic violence homicides.

Meanwhile, in America, the pro-gun crowds ideal gun laws can't even stop a teenager with a history of death threats, rape threats and animal abuse from legally buying two semi automatic weapons, mere days before he used them to kill a room full of children.

That's what gun control is trying to stop and what the pro-gun community inadvertently fights to keep.

I wasn’t aware that hunting was a hobby created after the invention of assault rifles. Pretty sure hunting has been a way of life since forever so I don’t think gun control is going to destroy that hobby.

How can you honestly be arguing hobbies are more important than doing something to protect human lives?
