About the same as florida and texas.

@Druvius You can’t simplify it like that. If gun ownership were not part of the Bill of Rights, it would be a simple matter to change, but it IS part of the Constitution, which is not easy to change, especially with so many red states. I do not disagree that it SHOULD change, just that it isn’t as simple a matter as @Petter or you are stating.
As for universal health care, we don’t have it because of greed…and the fact that most legislators are in the pockets of the health care industry. The only way to change THAT is to elect people who will not accept those political donations and are willing to institute what is a logical approach to health care. Citizens United MUST be reversed.

@KateOahu With the right people elected, even constitutional ammendments can be ammended.

@Petter Yes, but we need to change a lot of states from red to blue. I have only one vote. I work to get more people to vote, but apathy is a problem.

The NRA would have a stroke.

@Betty Pump action stroke?

@Petter The mind does boggle! (And @Betty knows my mind far too well!)

@pamagain
As @Druvius explained, permits are revoked.
If you have a gun and no permit then disposal is your responsibility. It's the same as having a driving licence revoked. No one "buys back" your car.
Owning a gun without a permit carries a massive penalty.
