We saw a lot of those gun nuts actually take action back on 1/6/2021. I wouldn't write them off.

    Those weren't gun nuts, those were Trump nuts.

    A large percentage of them probably are, but they where there because of Trump, not guns.

    I still would. It's not like ignoring it has been making it better. Many other countries solved the problem exactly the same way. A steadily ratcheting buyback does work for 90-95% of gun owners. And yes you are left with the crazies that are most likely to actually do terrible things with their guns, but at that point they will already be criminals before they even shoot... so it makes things alot easier.
