Yes -- and I like the generally optimistic tone of your post. This is an area where I would love to be proven wrong. I've come to realize that orthopedic issues that have been nagging me the past year have assisted in fouling my mood........so that's no doubt contributing to my pessimism and cynicism. When Schumer started yapping about maintaining Democratic values including "gun control" right after the 11/8 horror, I thought I was going to stroke out. Let's hope that you're on target with your prediction about the normalization of gun laws.
