There is no single answer to reducing gun violence, and not every shooting can be prevented. But we’re doing too little now, and so much more can be done. Finding a solution requires a range of responses, including: better mental health care and tracking, universal background checks, making guns safer (through “smart gun” technology that allows only the owner to fire); and requiring liability insurance for guns. Done correctly, these solutions would not infringe on Americans’ constitutional rights. |

| Why would anyone think we need more gun control laws when the Obama administration won't enforce the ones already on the books? |

TO REMEMBER |
| We'll take one step at a time, and the first is necessarily - given the political realities - very modest. We'll have to start working again to strengthen the law, and then again to strengthen the next law and again and again. Our ultimate goal, total control of handguns, is going to take time. The first problem is to slow down production and sales. Next is to get registration. The final problem is to make possession of all handguns and ammunition (with a few exceptions) totally illegal. — Pete Shields, founder of Handgun Control, Inc., New Yorker Magazine, June 26, 1976, pg. 53 |
