Here's my theory. Wouldn't work, but would at least make people think.


Voting is a constitutionally guaranteed right. So is gun ownership. Neither is without limits.

I would argue that both sides should get together and come up with a set of rules that apply to both voting and gun ownership.

Both should either be trivially easy (no photo ID required, just show up and do your thing), or genuinely challenging (must prove who you are and that you are qualified).

Force both sides to look at the issues from the other side and come up with something reasonable instead of the constant fearmongering.

To me, guns and votes are about equally dangerous in the hands of the unqualified.
