Reality, gun control is never going to go away and every single person on this forum knows and even agrees with some of it.  ( the use of guns)   it would be great if we could just have gun safety rules as laws.

Just make Gun Safety a mandatory course in Middle School.

First term mandatory.  Safety rules and procedures for safe handling with training on safe handling of various types of firearms.

Additional terms electives.  Range time and marksmanship work.
Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
—Patrick Henry

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster

TAB has started his campaign for President of the Brady Campaign.  Pretty broad brush strokes in your assertions concerning "everybody"  >:(
If I appear taller than other men it is because I am standing on the shoulders of others.

He didn't say anything that isn't completely accurate .
In fact it's probably the most concise, coherent comment he's ever posted on the subject.
I don't see what your problem is with it ?

TAB and Tom,

What gun control measure does everybody support?

One ragged hole is gun control, Mike!

The rest is people control...

I agree from the gun safety part of your statement.........


But......

Not to sound like an ass, but from someone who has been hit by a car, I'd rather take my chances with a random bullet fired in the air than an idiot or drunk behind the wheel of a car..... and yes, as far as idiots and their actions go, the two are comparable acts.


You can't regulate idiocy because it puts unnecessary controls on 'normal' folks.....you can only deal with it.
"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

"When it comes to the enemy, just because they ain't pullin' a trigger, doesn't mean they ain't totin' ammo for those that are."~PegLeg

That is not gun control.  That is comparable to not falsely shouting fire in a crowded theater.
