Well you only need one for a mass shooting, and carry bans aren't going to stop you if you're about to fucking murder a bunch of innocent strangers, so what problem is this solving exactly?
It's not. In the view of many, civilian gun ownership is A Problem To Be Solved. Such people do not draw a distinction between law-abiding gun owners who keep their guns secure and threaten nobody, and violent criminals and psychopaths who frequently kill people. Thus, with that view, any law that restricts gun ownership or reduces the number of guns in society is progress.
In reality, this law will do absolutely nothing for public safety. It will make the lives of gun owners harder, while the criminals and psychos will ignore this law just as they do every other law.
The problem of losers with tiny dicks walking around with their gun out scaring people. It's a breach of peace.
How else will people know I'm still a man despite my micro-penis?? I don't think you've thought this through.
Why not just get a big pickup truck and hang truck nuts on it? All the microdicks in my area do that. Nice oversized infotainment rich pickup truck, no mud on her, no tools or supplies in the back. Sorry about the penis size.
