CM,

the only probs I have with gun control as it were is the fact that the people pushing for it are really pushing for incremental gun elimination.

The laws are already on the books in abundance. You do not need more laws.

20,000 gun laws in the US at last look. you need the 10 I specified in previous posts.

1) do not use gun to murder.
2) do not use gun to intimidate.
3) do not sell guns to people with mind altering diseases.
4) do not sell guns to proven violent offenders.
5) do not sell guns to people who are convicted of mind altering drug use. (re-evaluation 5 or 10 years post conviction)
6) do not sell guns to minors.

A few others and you have it covered.

enforce those laws with stiff penalties and you have a solid gun control plan.

The large capacity laws are rediculous. First off you can still sell ones made prior to the law so you can still acquire them with ease. Secondly assault weapons (as they call them) are responsible for so few incidents as to be inconsequential.

In closing, gun control is already more than complete except for enforcement.
