I guess I don't understand what you mean. You're saying don't create any new legislation and lets all pray God keeps people from shooting each other?? What, exactly is your reasoning that brings you to the conclusion that we don't need any new legislation? Because it sounded to me like you think legislation won't work so why bother. And perhaps if we had some new EFFECTIVE legislation ...ya know some that doesn't prevent the ATF from actually doing their job .. we might make some actual progress here.
