One thing that is important to remember, as well, is that almost everyone will reasonably agree to guns not being able to be resold, or needing to have ID and criminal background checks before buying a gun.

The problem is that the debate constantly gets phrased as TAKING THE GUNS AWAY! by the people who really are disrupting progress for little reason but political support. Not necessarily that existing US gun culture opposes any restriction.

That's my experience though.
