The left is trotting out Gabby Giffords in order to try to guilt trip the opposition to gun-control.
As I suggested before, ask them "what are your solutions?" The solution isn't necessarily giving them what they want. Just because the left wants something doesn't make it an effective solution to a problem.
Gun-control didn't stop the Sandy Hook massacre. Connecticut already has a lot of gun-control. Adding more makes no sense--- if a lot of control didn't stop it, more isn't going to be the answer either.
Now, if you were to take the situation as it happened, and ask what could have been done in that situation that may have made the difference, then you are on the right track.
The situation at Sandy Hook was that there was nobody enforcing the gun-free zone. It is nuts to expect a criminal to obey the law. Why would anybody expect a criminal to obey the law? If all you had to do was pass a law, then there would be no crime. Now think about that. If there were no laws, there would be no crime. If you pass a law, then there is crime. What do you suppose the effect is then if you pass a law? It makes no difference in terms of deterrence unless you enforce it. Nothing is going to change just by passing a law. The act is going to happen unless you have someone there to stop it.
