I really think the only thing that can make Congress do anything is if somebody gets a machine gun in their chamber and blows away a bunch of Congressmen. And I do think it will happen. They've passed every law to permit it. Made sure that anyone can get a gun or 12 guns. Even crazy people.
What they have also done is to make it much more likely a White guy (with money and no criminal record) will be the one to do it, simply by creating a society in which Black men are more likely to have a criminal record that prohibits gun ownership.
I think Paddock may be the perfect example: Not criminal, not crazy, not religious, not political. The only indicator that he was going to commit a mass shooting was the guns themselves. Sure guns don't kill people, people do. But especially a person who buys multiple bumpstocks, multiple semi-automatic weapons, and lots of ammo.
Maybe this pattern of purchases should get you on a watch list, and when you move all those guns to someplace other than your home it should trigger some kind of alarm.
