[QUOTE="DavidMcmillan, post: 3796053, member: 11749"] I failed to explain what I was thinking. We continue to point to “20,000 laws” that are not being enforced. I don’t know if 20,000 is a correct amount, but that doesn’t matter. What I was referring to was maybe we were successful in keeping laws from being written that would have been effective in reducing some of these incidents, but would have been unconstitutional, at least in our eyes. I consider that as success for our side, however, by pointing out the inadequacy of current law, we may be encouraging ore restrictive laws to be written. We may have been successful up to this point, but I’m not convinced that we can continue to use the same approach in the future. We are losing in the court of public opinion. It is easy to see how how “non-gun” people are beginning to say “enough is enough” and increase their call for action. I don’t have any answers, only questions. [/QUOTE]
