"What people really want to talk about, however, is how to stop bad guys from getting guns in the first place."????? Ummmm....most bad guys STEAL guns. People seem to forget that the weapons used in the Connecticut massacre were STOLEN weapons. They were not legally purchased by the person that actually killed these children and teachers. They were legally purchased by a person who was killed and the guns then stolen. So please tell me how new gun laws would have prevented that????

I did not advocate any new gun laws, nor do I think we can prevent every tragedy. That's why I called for a deeper conversation than just crafting reactionary responses to this one incident, which is what LaPierre did. I pointed out flaws in his proposals and noted that he is attempting to steer the conversation away from our Constitution's language.
