The Great Irony...

that snuck in with Saturday's Gun Control Marches is that while the rhetoric was both clear and even blunt the actual proposals are fairly modest, better background checks, a reinstitution of the assault weapons ban, limited confiscatory powers to local police, a fairly limited agenda, I would say almost "Clinton-Esque" in its inherent moderation.
But alas the "gun worshippers" out there have gotten so besotted and spoiled they regard even a hint of dialogue as an imminet threat to the entire US Constitution.  I applaud the kid's technique they are outplaying their opponents at the game of politics. It is a very simple agenda, well promulgated, when its rejected by the NRA et al, then it's game on come the fall. I think the unwillingness to discuss  anything at all may well doom this lot, but then they've got tons of money and are unburdened by shame so  stay tuned folks.
