Im fine with more background checks and regulations, nothing is being outlawed and "law abiding citizens" can still go buy their guns - even semi auto rifles, just like they were saying would be outlawed a couple years ago. Nothing has changed. Obama isnt taking your and my guns away. Whats wrong with more regulation, knowing who has what gun or who applied for what? Im all for more basic regulation, it doesnt hurt as long as its not another huge federal money waster. Mental competency tests are the real kicker if they want to regulate, but what constitutes mentally okay?

While it might just be a horse and pony show, I would say that america does have a gun problem, even though I have a couple at home. Our society is integrated with them, so I dont see them going away in our lifetime. Heck im sure people will be able to use a 3d printer to make them at home soon if they arent already.

I also feel there are much larger issues that contribute to mass casualties these days. Alchohol is one example of being a huge cause of death. Healthcare and the food industry is another massive money making scheme that has no focus on the real good, but thats another thread. lol
