It must be a conspiracy
Conducted from July 31 to August 6, the poll shows the majority of likely voters in all three swing states do not favor stricter regulations for gun sales.
Voters in Colorado, where a gunman last month killed 12 and injured many more when he opened fire in a crowded movie theater, were most likely to favor keeping gun laws exactly as they are, with just 38 percent wanting stricter gun sales in their state. Sixty-six percent of voters in that state also said they do not believe harsher gun laws would curtail future shooting sprees; 60 percent of Virginia voters and 57 percent of Wisconsin voters share that view.

Because secretly we gun owners are saying to ourselves, "I wish they would try that with me."
Exactly. The hero-wanabes live in a fantasy Rambo World where they stand up in a hail of bullets that never hit them and Take Out The Bad Guy. They would then be America's Hero, interviewed by their own heroes - O'Reilly and lushbo. Their wives would once again be willing to have sex with them and their neighbors would idolize them.
BTW, I own guns and don't share this childish, Mighty Mouse fantasy but I do believe you are correct. But, the mass shootings continue and no heroes stand up to Save The Day and Get The Girl.
Why?
Because carrying a gun does not make one brave or a hero. Nor does it give anyone the balls they didn't have before they strapped on their John Wayne costume.
Few are standing up to them because there are so few that actually carry. That is a good thing though because there are so few that actually know what they are doing.
Not to mention there ARE examples of this, youre just conveniently ignoring them. They dont make national headlines because there is no mass tragedy.
