| What really needs to be done is to stop relying on someone else with a gun to come and save you. Be an American that is willing to take responsibility for your own protection. |

Awfully presumptuous. I don't think "Americans agree that gun deaths are a national crisis." Violent crime and crime involving firearms is in decline.
You can't compare automobiles and firearms.....driving is a privilege, bearing arms is a right.
I could expect no less from a policy director from someplace called "Squirrel Hill." |

All the gun control laws passed since the 1968 gun control act (and even before that) were supposed to stop unlawful use of guns. None of them have achieved their promise. What makes anyone think that more laws will work.
Gun control laws only affect law abiding citizens. The criminals, wackos and malcontents do not obey laws and will get guns regardless of the number of laws and restrictions. |

TO REMEMBER |
| A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. ~ Marcus Tullius Cicero (42B.C) |
