Simple. Enforcement of the laws that are currently on the books. We had a case down here in Georgia where a former Black Panther was stopped for a routine traffic offense. The officer noticed a handgun in the glove compartment. This guy was a convicted felon out on parole. The law says that a convicted felon cannot be in possession of any firearm. He was arrested. The feds chose not to prosecute. A few weeks later he shot a Deputy Sheriff. If the law had been enforced he would have gone back to prison and a life would have been saved but it wasn't. This case further points out that if all the decent folks turn in our guns only the crooks will have them.
