At this point I don’t think either party wants this settled. It makes such a handy campaign issue that they just can’t bear the thought of not being able to use it any more.

San Francisco “They also required privately owned handguns to be stored in a locked container or with a trigger lock.”
I guess threatening an intruder with AIDS tainted blood will work too, since there is more of that than handguns I bet.

Gun control back as national issue Gosh, I hope so.
I'd *love* to see the Democrats lose dozens of races and the Presidency in 2008.

As far as I'm concerned, the best way to increase gun-control in the US is to construct Federally mandated shooting ranges for every city.
As we all know, good gun-control results in tight groupings.

The recent study by Garen Wintemute, director of the violence-prevention research program at the University of California, Davis, contends that police presence at the shows is too small to discourage illegal activity. .... "I would like to see a policy change that makes direct private-party transfers of guns illegal," Wintemute said. And since cars kill many times more people than guns each year I'm sure Mr. Wintemute would also like to see a policy change thatn makes direct private-party transfers of cars illegal too, right?

Lefties will continue to try to point out “loopholes” as long as private citizens own firearms. Same story, different day.

Gun control back as national issue Already? Well I was wondering what it would take to dislodge the Dems from power; gun control it is.

Did King own a gun? Yes. In his writings and in interviews, King, the object of many death threats, acknowledged once owning a gun in Montgomery, Ala., and seeking a license to carry in a gun in his car. In The Autobiography of Martin Luther King, Jr., he wrote that the issue of armed protection arose after a bombing at his home. He ultimately rejected armed defense, however, because he decided that it was inconsistent with his message.
It was his right to decide he didn't want or need a gun to protect himself. I wonder, though, if he would have agreed with Jesse Jackson that citizens should be deprived of the right to make that choice for themselves. The fact that King chose to get rid of his gun does not in any way support the idea that other citizens should be forced to live by that choice themselves.

Congress is on track to possibly pass the first federal gun control legislation since 1994. Recall the excessively vehement gun control talk coming from the Left in 1994 as they anticipated their overwhelming victory in national elections, and the subsequent Right victory attributed to Newt but really due to gun grabbers.

“Congress is on track to possibly pass the first federal gun control legislation since 1994.”
Whenever the Republicans get into trouble, the Democrats always come along to bail them out.

"Jackson has also declared Aug. 28 -- the 44th anniversary of Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech at the March on Washington -- a national day of protest for tougher gun laws."Great!

"Gun control back as national issue" Sounds to me like wishful thinking on the part of the leftmedia and their statist kin.
