If you're of the mind that in the current political and social conventional wisdom, we need additional gun control, please take a moment. Listed below is but a small list of Federal Gun laws. If you do in fact believe that criminals will suddenly begin to obey gun laws, or that suddenly, the passage of even more gun laws and regulations will magically end the problem, stop and think. By advocating for additional gun laws and regulations, you are saying that the current gun laws and regulations have little to no impact and therefore we need to pass additional laws and regulations to correct the problem. Do you understand how asinine that train of thought is? You are advocating to continue to do the same thing over and over again and now expecting a different result.
