Here's an article from the Washington Post that explains why a lot of American's aren't too concerned about gun violence. That is unless you start taking about a whole bunch of laws that would take weapons away.

In that percentage... how much might be with legal gun owners as opposed to the wide variety of illegal situations and usage? A potential felon will find and use a gun... faster and more effectively than we could ever legally procure one.
More legislation will not reduce the purposeful illegal procurement and use of firearms.

Very true, Non gun owners/Anti-gun people will not research this as much as Pro Self-defense people would. All they know is the people in power to pushing new laws so it must be good, here is our donation. They see what the media shows and nothing else which is a down right crying shame. I could rant for hours as I have been told, so I have summed it up to make my wife happy, Can't fix stupid.

Magpul is based in Colorado and they told the politicians that they would exit the State, but the Governor is planning a run for President in 2016.

Colorado just passed a new Gun Control Law.

Fortunately, Colorado has NOT passed the new law. Colorado's House of Representatives passed their version but the Colorado Senate has not dealt with the bill yet. It says that in the news article.

Let's hope that the Colorado Senate has clearer vision and that it's not a political vision.

OK. Skip ... Let us hope that that things work out in favor of the 2nd Amendment.
