Re: Oregon shooting

Banning guns wouldn't be an immediate solution but nothing would be, the idea is over time

This. I don't get the defeatist attitude of "Well, this is going to happen no matter what!" when it comes to this issue. That's like saying, "Well, there's no point in locking your doors or buying a safe, 'cause hey, people are gonna break in and steal things no matter what!" or "There's no use in making laws against rapists or murderers, 'cause hey, people are going to rape and murder no matter what!"

Nobody advocating for gun control expects this problem to go away overnight. Nobody. And none of them are naïve enough, or at least most of them aren't naïve enough, to think that shootings will stop completely if we put proper regulations and restrictions in place. So why the pro-gun side seems to imply we do think otherwise, I don't understand.

I just fail to see the harm in at least TRYING to get some legislation passed. Just some to begin with. Test the waters. See how it goes. If it doesn't work, guess what? We can always keep trying new ideas and fine-tuning the laws.

But if some new, tougher gun control legislation is passed and it DOES prove work, and we see these sorts of news stories becoming less and less common, then...where exactly is the problem, again?
