Is it typically American to split hairs over the result of a problem rather than eliminate the cause of it?
Why does the general public need easy access to replica guns? Why the fuck should kids be able to access something that looks close enough to the real thing to get them shot in the first place? Over here, the laws around replica weapons are almost as strict as the laws around real weapons. Guess how many kids have been shot here in the last 10 years by a cop who thought they had a real gun? Zero. Big fat fucking zero.
Eliminate the root problem and all the other bullshit disappears.
