Mark on Guns

>1. Closing the gun show loophole

Gun sale precheck/waiting periods should be uniform for all gun sales

>2. Renewing the Assault Weapons Ban

Assault weapons have no place in private hands

>3. Maintaining a data base for tracking guns used in crimes

Weapons used to commit a crime should be destroyed

>4. "Take you guns to work" legislation that forces employers to allow guns on their private property against their will.

Employers have a primary responsibility to provide a safe and healthy workplace - that includes the option to prohibit weapons on their property.

NOTE: Having said all of the above, I would add we live in a nation filled with firearms and the basic right of an American to bear arms should not be taken away - firearms education should be compulsory to bring up the awareness of our people to the issues of safety and prudent practice around firearms. It only makes sense to educate the people, gun owners or non-gun owners to the proper handling of firearms.
