Lots of other bloggers have talked about this already, but just in case you haven't seen it yet, I want to point out this opinion piece by one Dan Simpson.  This is yet another example of why there can be no compromise with enemies of freedom.  They can talk about what they call "common-sense gun laws" all they want, but every now and then, one of them slips up and reveals the real agenda.

Although I do believe Simpson is an elitist and a fascist, I don't think he's crazy.  I think he's just abysmally stupid.  This passage, for example:
America's long land and sea borders present another kind of problem. It is easy to imagine mega-gun dealerships installing themselves in Mexico, and perhaps in more remote parts of the Canadian border area, to funnel guns into the United States. That would constitute a problem for American immigration authorities and the U.S. Coast Guard, but not an insurmountable one over time.

There could conceivably also be a rash of score-settling during hunting season as people drew out their weapons, ostensibly to shoot squirrels and deer, and began eliminating various of their perceived two-footed enemies. Given the general nature of hunting weapons and the fact that such killings are frequently time-sensitive, that seems a lesser sort of issue.
The suggestion that hunters would quickly "settle scores" during the brief time they are allowed their weapons is despicable and reveals his own contempt for his fellow humans.  But the first paragraph there reveals his utter stupidity.  Our so-called "authorities" can't stop truckloads of people from illegally crossing the border.  How would they ever stop illegal guns?  Guns can be stashed in places that a person can't, and they don't have to be kept alive.  Like I said, abysmally stupid.

However, this is not to be taken lightly.  This is what they really want.  Read the whole article.
