Gun Control Reform Activism

In my home town Marysville WA, a police officer left his 2 young children and his unsecured gun alone in his car. His 3 year old son shot and killed his 7 year old daughter. That officer is still a cop and still carrying his gun around my town. I want to see background checks and real- no-exception consequences for negligent gun owners. The proposed rules will not prevent 1 accidental or intentional gun death. It will just strength the NRA and make ammo manufactures a lot of money (the price of M855 green tip is up 40%). If this rule is adopted, I expect that congress will act to quash this rule, with the support of a majority of Democrats. I also suspect that will the only action the congress takes on gun control in the next 2 years. I wish we could get the King-Thompson bipartisan bill to expand background checks on gun sales passed, but this useless rule will suck all of the oxygen out of the debate.
