The real lunacy is the pro-gun lobby fighting every single offing attempt at imposing even the most common since and innocuous attempts at reform.
The only "solutions" they propose are:
1. More guns, no limits
2. Harsher penalties on gun crimes
3. BUT -more leniency in allowing shooters to claim self defense
When we as a country lead the world in incarcerated Americans, it's clear that harsh penalties aren't an effective measure alone...and we in the top echelon for gun related fatalities...then the current system is not working. The definition of lunacy is to keep on proposing more of the same.
But hey - if anyone dares oppose the gun lobby and proposes we adopt some reasonable restrictions, they are accused of being anti-gun, of "gonna confiscate all muh guns!" etc. There is plenty of room between the extremes of what we have now and what the pro gun lobby claims will happen. But we are not allowed to go there.
Ironically, the many same people people opposing any sort of regulation are the ones who have no problem interfering in decisions between a woman and her doctor, or in medical decisions between parents, children and doctors.
