I think gun control is a losing issue for Democrats at the moment, I don't care much about guns as an issue either way, I'm surrounded by neighbors with guns and I know that's not going to change no matter what the politicians may or may not do. There's deer hunting coming up and they'll be shooting about 200 yards from where I'm typing this, the property owner has given permission and I don't disagree with their right to do so. I've posted here where the hunters have given me a scare before, I'd just as soon they weren't here but if they are they are.

You have a wishy washy majority that mostly doesn't care enough about guns to be single issue voters on it and a rigid minority who cares about little else but guns, that's why they have political power out of proportion to their numbers.
