Marc,

You say that gun control doesn't work. Please, tell me how it doesn't work in Japan, the UK, Australia, Canada? Look at the stats I presented regarding per capita firearms deaths. Gun control, as required by those nations, absolutely works. Now, could the United States ever transition to such low levels of ownership? I seriously doubt it, it's in our DNA! Too many men have been raised on John Wayne and Sylvester Stallone flicks, it's what real American men (and often women) do. I am not advocating for gun confiscation, SCOTUS has been clear on that. It's just that things have so strayed from what is reasonable. And the power of the NRA is scary, and shame on politicians from both parties who won't push back!

As to Fast and Furious, take the time and listen to this broadcast:

The greater outrage of F & F is clearly the ridiculously lax gun laws in Arizona! Shame on that state!
