Well, if you have to bring up tragedies to back your play on additional laws, then that's pretty pitiful. Where is the talk about philosophy, principles, ethics? Give us something other than an emotional plea based on recent events that support your cause. If this was the case in anything else, it would be all too easy to show instances where lots of other things should be outlawed, banned or have additional regulations. So are you saying that the family members of those who were killed in Newtown should just shut up?They don't have a right to speak?Do you believe that they are being forced to speak by Democrats and are not doing it on their own?I saw them on 60 Minutes last Sunday, and they sure didn't seem like the type of people who would allow themselves to be used for political purposes. They were very intelligent and articulate people. None of them espoused any type of political ideology and in fact insisted that this was not a political issue for them.
