Maybe it's a badge of honor. And yet, I am not a fanatic about gun control. I do think guns should be registered. We need to find out how criminals get a hold of them. We need to be able to trace the guns criminals use back to their legitimate source. Therefore we need to register guns.

Also, we need gun laws for big cities. Too many guns on the streets = gang warfare, unnecessary deaths, dead kids, grieving families and fear. We shouldn't have to live in that kind of a community.

If the NRA has real solutions that can work, let them bring them forward. More guns will not work. We have more than enough guns already.
