Why is the question framed as Tighter Laws vs. Status Quo? Does it not even occur to these people to question if even the current crap, er, crop of laws is good or bad? Why is there no option to vote on rolling back the failed anti-rights legislative experiments of the last century and returning to what was the status quo for 150 years? Stare decisis and all that.

For the same reason that the drive by media rarely cover legitimate defensive use of firearms. They want to control the debate, IMHO.
