3. It would be funny

If it wasn't such a serious issue.

It seems like it was just yesterday, actually it was yesterday, we saw a post exhorting gun owners to step up and support gun laws. https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=10303375

Less than 24 hours later a gun group says they will support a gun control law and even explain how and why it will reduce guns in the hands of criminals. They reply...
THAT'S NOT ENOUGH and throw out a plethora of add-ons without explaining how they will help.

Maybe I am cynical but I do believe there are those who want nothing if they can't have it all. They fear if something gets put in place that works they will never achieve their ultimate goal.
