Will these steps reduce gun violence?

The Guardian thinks they will. What do you think?

• Close loopholes that allow felons, perpetrators of domestic abuse, or people with a history of dangerous mental illness to purchase weapons.
• Let government agencies such as the CDC research gun violence by repealing the 1996 budget amendment that says: “None of the funds made available in this title may be used, in whole or in part, to advocate or promote gun control.”
• Make interstate gun trafficking a federal crime, and increase penalties for so-called “straw-man” sales in which someone buys a gun to deliver to a third party.
• Expand the ban on the sale of firearms to those convicted of domestic violence, including abuse and stalking.
• Convince institutions to introduce firearm bans in the public places that they own, such as college campuses, stores and restaurants.
• Revive the 1994 ban on assault weapons, which expired in 2004.
• Ban certain types of ammunition, such as hollow-point bullets , which tend to be more lethal, and limit the number of rounds allowed per magazine – as the 1994 ban limited magazines to a maximum of 10 bullets, for instance.
• Require waiting periods for gun purchases so that background checks can be finished and to encourage buyers to “ cool off ” from any violent impulses that might be motivating them to buy a weapon, require training for those wanting to be issued a gun license, and introduce a registry of weapons.
