Heaven help up if this gun grabbing nut job gets to the White TeePee.
But Warren is going beyond some of the more commonly discussed ideas, such as stricter background checks or a ban on assault weapons. Her plan calls for creating a federal licensing system, limiting the number of firearms someone could buy, raising the minimum age to 21 for purchasing a gun, holding gun manufacturers liable (and, in some cases, even holding gun industry CEOs personally liable).
She also wants to raise taxes for gun manufacturers (from 10% to 30% on guns and from 11% to 50% on ammunition).
Additionally, Warren's plan calls for $100 million annual investment into gun violence research. She points out that the frequency of automobile deaths in the United States declined with widespread safety measures, such as seat belts and air bags. With the same approach, she says, her goal of an 80% reduction in gun-related deaths could be achieved.

Nobody has more "plans" like Warren.
All plans are complete nonsense, of course. But she loves to plan

I guess she is tired of gun control in increments... Go full commie as fast as possible, constitution be damned.
How about just have the government do a gun trade out ... Bows and arrows for starters ought to be up her ally.. /end sarcasm
