Thoughts on gun control

I've been thinking a lot about gun control lately due to school shootings being normalized and overlooked nowadays. there hasn't really been and real change in how things work regarding gun control and where pretty much still the same unsafe America, and I think people who are against it are the ones really holding us back. At this point, I think it just comes down to ignorance in a sense. Citizens who aren't for gun control hear some fake news and just run with it. For example, when people bring up gun control some take it as laws that abolish our second amendment and that to me is just silly because a complete ban on guns will probably never happen.  Republicans love their toys way too much to let anyone take them away. Gun controls are laws and policies put in place to protect people and regulate them. What a stronger gun control essentially wants to do is to make guns harder to reach to people who really shouldn’t have one, and when some hear that statement they go straight to "well people can get guns illegally". and yes that is true but it's way harder for them to obtain one. it's like if you're underage and you want alcohol, you have to go through another person to get some but with guns, it's most likely entirely harder. At the end of the day we need stronger gun control so that America’s children can be safe again, and to people who think that gun control is brought up in politics means they’re trying to take your toys away, “Kim, there’s people that are dying.”
