I wonder if the pro gun lobby would care to try their hand at writing gun
control legislation that would recognize their hobby and yet improve the
liklihood of assault victims surviving because there were fewer deadly
weapons with which to conduct attacks available to the less responsible. 
After all, it may be people rather than guns that kill, but it is a heck
of a lot easier to kill someone with a gun than without one.

What would the gun hobbiests accept?  No controls at all?  Better ones? 
What would they consider better?
