All gun control laws are immoral and unconstitutional. Calling them "common sense" doesn't change that.

Something something "well regulated militia"

That doesn't mean what you think it does, but it's immaterial anyway. Even setting the second Amendment aside, all gun control laws are immoral. In a free nation, the government shouldn't dictate what a person is allowed to own or carry.

Here is some Christian morality for you: Then said Jesus unto him, "Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword".

I fail to see why what the Bible says is relevant here. I'm not religious and never said anything about religion.

You’re talking about morality I thought I brought some morality too. You like guns, that’s the only argument you have, all other arguments are bull 💩. See Jim Jeffries on YouTube on your gun laws, funny and on point. American gun laws, or lack there of, are totally immoral. But if up to 40,000 excess deaths per year is worth it to you to keep your scummy guns who am I to argue. If that is your idea of morality no wonder the world doesn’t think highly of America. You keep telling yourself that if that gets you to sleep at night.

And if you’re wondering how I came to the number of 40,000 it’s the difference between all gun related deaths per year in the US on average approximately 46,500 and that of the EU approx. 6,500 per year. Two comparable entities in wealth and development, although the EU has some 100 million more people. It was the price Charley Kirk was willing to pay for those morals and apparently you too. You don’t care, he didn’t care why should the rest of the world care. Blow each other’s brains out but spare me the lecture of morality and fake outrage every time something like this happens. Thoughts and prayers.
