We are currently putting enormous resources into scrutinizing the vast majority of people who do not pose a problem.

That's because the government sees armed, law-abiding citize3ns as a threat to their monopoly on power.

What has worked to decrease the number of murders, what has a proven track record, is focusing on prohibiting the possession of guns by dangerous individuals, instead of their acquisition of guns.

Yes, but finding the dangerous felon who's non-felon wife/girlfriend/whatever has the guns in "their" house. This happens all the time. Dangerous people will get guns as long as we allow them to roam among us.

The NRA caved on the Lautenberg amendment. Prohibited possession is over-reaching in its scope.
