The truth of the matter is, that the NRA and gun-nuts will do everything possible (including the NRA spending itself into bankruptcy) to stop any meaningful changes in the laws until this tragedy, like all of those previously...slowly goes away.

Which is what they're counting on.

If by chance some traction is gained on changes, there will be screeching about how "the government is trying to take away all of your guns," which as history has proved...will simply spur gun/ammunition sales.

And then grateful gun/ammo manufacturers will donate to the coffers of the NRA to keep their financial heads above water and nothing will happen or change...once again.

The ONLY way meaningful progress can ever be made in this country, is to somehow convince those who feel 'manly/macho' when they have their guns, that it takes more guts/integrity/honor...to stand up to the insanity of the ingrained gun culture in this country...that so many worship.
