I agree with you, but the 2 things you're talking about aren't related to one another?
Habitual offenders should be handled in an increasingly punitive manner, ie: the kid with the gun 5-6-7 whatever it is times.
That has nothing to do with gun control though, at least not yet... I can't say whatever restrictions are in place 'make sense' to gun nuts, it probably doesn't the same way car restrictions would sound out to lunch to enthusiasts of cars like us... it takes a long time for a ban on something to take effect and for all the built up supply that already exists in the country to slowly dwindle or lack of maintenance/upkeep out and there's always going to be some people who find ways to bypass it, but the costs and difficulty of doing so keep getting higher and more difficult as time goes on until eventually it is effective in its goal.
Social issues aren't light switches. They're 10+ year processes.
