I ' m not in the far left , mostly just left leaning while I straddle the middle line but I somewhat agree . I don ' t think we need to be extremely well armed , I don ' t want to see random citizens walking around the mall with AR ' s but I appreciate the 2 nd and the utility of an armed populace . What I would like to see is licensure including concealed carry being a nationwide license , not a state by state . National reciprocity as well as national registry for licensure not registry of guns but of licenses . Say you have a concealed carry license , I think you should be on a registry that allows easy access to purchasing guns once you are on the registry though I do think that getting on the registry should take some effort .
