But, the question that needs to be answered is: ARE GUN OWNERS WILLING TO COMPROMISE???

Perhaps initially...at least until the gun manufacturers and the NRA begin their campaign of how this is nothing but an elaborate trick to attack and diminish the 2nd Amendment...

It's a good and balanced op, but it relies on the belief that those on the other side of this issue think that there is a need for compromise!!!
