Let's get real here...

As I have pointed out before, we have gun control... Lots of gun control... We don't let babies and kids play wiith them... We try to keep them outta schools and, for the most part, do that rather well... We keep them outta church and sports arenas and lots of places... We restrict some adults access to guns based on past behavior...

So let's get beyond whether or not we should have gun control becuae we have it, everyone knows it and that is a non issue...

Where the rub comes into play is in the NRA, which is a multi-million dollar lobby and being so it has to create subterfuge to keep it's memebers sending in their dollars...

Where the rub cames in, part B, is that the Republican Party has taken ownership of the NRA and used it's subterfuge as a wedge issue to keep the NRA's rather right winged and redneck base all fired up at election time... Nevermind that Joe Six-Pack has just6 lost his job because it was ent overseas... Joe-Sixpack is ready and willing to blame the liberals who want gun control for all of his woes...

This is what the right wing does... It takes the Epsilons of our society and uses the BIG THREE: abortion, gays and guns to keep it's base mobilized... And they do it very well, I might add...
