“Americans make up about 4.43 percent of the world’s population, yet own roughly 42 percent of all the world’s privately held firearms.” – Vox

America has to begin a sensible conversation about guns. Insurance for gun owners? Ban on machine guns? License process to include more extensive background information?

Something has to change and it’s not going to come from responsible gun owners. It’s going to come from the majority who do not own guns.
