Creepy!

Just curious how many people have to die in the U.S.A from guns before there is serious legislation restricting gun accessibility. Do lobby groups like the NRA and being able to hold onto OUTDATED constitutional amendments come before lives? What shocks me the most about the States, is the vast number of brutal multiple murders that are occurring and how UNimportant anti-gun legislation seems to be.

Do Americans love their guns so much that they will allow the 6 Oโ€™clock news bloodbaths to continue? Disturbing indeed.
