3. But their "framing" is one of "concern" and "reasonable-ness" unlike the NRA...yeah...

every gd one of them seems to parrot the same old stuff! It's always "something" that is wrong with every single gun safety law on the books anywhere, anyplace in the U.S.A.

I'm afraid my conversations here on DU with these people just end up with them walking away with NO support of ANY gun safety regulations WHATSOEVER. Nuthin'.

I finally gave up. This is what my parents used to call "everyone is out of step but Johnny" after some famous cartoon. It just cannot be that every state legislature is the same and every one of them incompetent and wrong. No, it is the gun lovers and their irrational defense of their positions that is irrational, incompetent and wrong.

Now I just give my loud support to my governor, Dan Malloy, for whom I will work this election year and support his gun safety regulations here in CT. God knows we, of all states, know about this issue...I have never been so ashamed of my state as I was after Sandy Hook...THANK GOD for Dan Malloy...
