Classical Liberalism

Very strongly agree

No, this is a violation of the 2nd amendment

Classical liberalism strongly supports individual liberties, including the right to bear arms as protected by the Second Amendment. A mandatory buyback of assault weapons would be seen as a violation of this right, and classical liberals would likely strongly disagree with such a policy.

Agree

No, increase mental health and background checks instead

Classical liberalism supports limited government intervention, but many classical liberals may agree with increasing mental health and background checks as a way to address gun violence without infringing on Second Amendment rights. This approach focuses on individual responsibility and could be seen as a reasonable compromise.

Agree

No, it should be voluntary with strong financial incentives instead

While classical liberalism values individual liberties, some classical liberals may see voluntary buybacks with financial incentives as a compromise between gun control and respecting the Second Amendment. This approach allows individuals to choose whether to participate, aligning with the classical liberal emphasis on personal choice.

Disagree

Yes, but start with a voluntary buyback and ban on purchasing assault weapons before enforcing a mandatory buyback

While some classical liberals may be open to voluntary buybacks and bans on purchasing assault weapons, the mandatory buyback aspect would still be seen as an infringement on Second Amendment rights. However, the voluntary aspect and gradual approach may make this option more palatable to some classical liberals, hence the score is not lower.

Disagree

Yes, and we should also demilitarize local police departments

Classical liberalism emphasizes limited government intervention and individual liberties. A mandatory buyback of assault weapons and demilitarizing local police departments would likely be seen as an overreach of government power and an infringement on Second Amendment rights. However, some classical liberals may acknowledge the need for some gun control measures and police reform, hence the score is not -5.
