Our Idiotic Gun Laws:

In the wake of the murder of six people in Arizona by a lunatic, all the focus seems to be on the vitriolic language of political commentators and politicians, unlike past gun violence discussions that focused on gun Laws. Evidently, only Gail Collins at The New York Times, seems to be willing to focus attention on the problem at hand: how did this nut come to possess a weapon whose sole purpose is to kill as many people as possible as quickly as possible.

It's time to put the NRA on trial for their complicity in all the gun deaths in this country. And you can add to that much of the violence that's occurring in Mexico as well.
