More proof that people just don't get it

Gun fearing idiots control advocates are upset because gun-control doesn't seem to be a hot topic anymore. As usual, all emphasis is mine.

“The modus operandi of the gun lobby is to keep the discussion down,” said Eric Howard, spokesman for the Brady Campaign to Prevent Handgun Violence (search).

But supporters of gun rights (search) say pro-gun control Democrats have learned the hard way that a majority of Americans think current laws are strict enough.

Oh, and that little study by the CDC that said "there is insufficient evidence that gun contro lowers crime" might have some play as well.

Much to the chagrin of gun control lobbyists on Capitol Hill and in state legislatures, current politics have not played well in their favor. They cite support by Democrats of a bill that would render gun manufacturers immune to lawsuits -- a cornerstone of their efforts to impose non-legislative controls on the gun industry in the last few years.

Can't get the laws passed? Screw the laws! Screw the people! We know what's right and we're taking it to the COURTS!

"The only thing that will set the industry straight is with lawsuits,” Howard said. The Brady Campaign has argued that the bill -- which has already passed in the House -- would protect dealers like Bulls Eye Shooter Supply (search), which claimed it lost the Bushmaster (search) allegedly used last year by Washington, D.C.-area sniper defendants John Allen Muhammad (search) and Lee Boyd Malvo (search).

Of course, the fact that Bulls Eye Shooter Supply had over 300 guns missing might lead some people to deduce that the owner of said store is corrupt. 300 guns, people. Now let's see what that amounts to in dollars, shall we? Let's say that each gun cost $300. Those of us who buy guns know that $300 is a very small amount. Most guns average between $400-$600. But $300 is a low-end pistol. Now then, over three hundred guns missing, at AT LEAST $300 a pop equals AT LEAST $90,000 worth of missing inventory. Name me ONE FRIGGING BUSINESS OWNER that completly overlooks $90,000 worth of missing stock! Unless you're completely incompetant, you don't. So this owner is either incompetant, or corrupt. In either case he shouldn't be selling guns. A lawsuit against him isn't going to do a damn thing. He need to actually GO TO JAIL! Ya know, like, enforce the damn laws we have now!

The reason that gun-control isn't a big issue is because people are starting to find that the gun grabbing nazi's control arguments are as full of shit as the politicians who promote them.
