If anyone tells you that it's "too soon" to talk about gun control, tell them you're talking in response to the shooting from last week.

If youre calling guns "sticks", we have more "sticks" per citizen than other countries & more "stick" related deaths https://t.co/m4HCv6L4Ak

@DanSlott Very funny. Very valid points. Btw, I'm a gun owner. ...a gun owner that realizes that we need some adjustments to our gun laws.)

The guns were obtained legally.
We have to stop making it so easy for this to happen.
Can we all agree on that?

California has long banned certain long guns that the left ridiculously calls “assault rifles” since 1989. It also has a universal background check law. Oregon also passed legislation mandating universal background checks for all firearms sales; it did nothing to stop Christopher Harper-Mercer from committing a mass shooting at Umpqua Community College in Roseburg back in October.And you can be sure Slott comprehends even less. The Washington Post, quite a liberal bastion themselves, says that the NYT's gone too far this time, and is actually hurting the whole cause with their one-sided reporting. Come to think of it, so is Slott. He might want to consider that here in Israel, guns have managed to deter some terrorist attacks, and Jerusalem's mayor has asked citizens to arm themselves for self-defense. But I get the feeling Israel's patriots mean nothing to Slott any more than America's. He's probably not even grateful to Hanna Bohman, the Canadian model who's now part of an army unit fighting ISIS overseas. And if not, then he has no business writing superhero comics.
Moreover, yes, Gallup did report that Americans want more gun control, but if the editorial board read the whole poll–they would have found that 56 percent felt concealed firearms would make the country safer. Additionally, the Washington Post’s July analysis found that 57 percent feel that guns help prevent crime. As with anything with polls, wording matters. In the wake of Newtown, 58 percent supported a ban on semiautomatic weapons. Yes, Gallup noted that support for a handgun ban is near record lows. The point: a handgun is a semiautomatic weapon. It merely means self-reloading, which adds to the growing evidence that the media and the progressive left know little about the nomenclature of firearms, let alone the laws that apply to them.
