There are some things we can do that will save lives. No 30 round clips...no war weapons, get rid of the gun show loopholes and mandatory background checks for handguns. These are things most Americans agree upon. One must have a pretty damn good 'approved' reason to own an AK47 as it is a weapon for war and not hunting. They rejected seat belts at first also. I mean, what is it gonna hurt to do these things?
