You've established your position that current firearm restrictions are insufficient. I think though and most here agree that current laws are adequate. What is missing though is enforcement of restrictions on individuals outlined in the Gun Control Act of 1968. Those include felons and those that are mentally unfit. A current shortcoming is a chronic failure of states to comply with reporting requirements by states to the federal database as required in the 1968 law. This is the problem and it is one primarily concerning firearm access by the mentally unfit. Although Adam Lanza used his mother's guns, that wasn't the case with Jared Loughner in Arizona who purchased his guns. The real issue at hand are shortcomings in the mental health and reporting systems. This is where the public dialog and the discussion on this thread need to reside. However, mandating new restrictions is not a position this thread takes or will justify by defending against the misguided onslaught of liberal activists which wish to direct the public discussion away from what is actually needed. * * *
