Gunman kills woman at Pennsylvania church, two men elsewhere

[Scott Hartnell's Mane]

Umm, that's what you said. You said the alternative to do nothing would be to 'confront these gun nuts' as you eloquently put it.

Start with a conversation of course, like anything else. Jumping into 'ban this' won't work, you need to talk to people like they are adults. In the mean time, as we've seen, there will be more and more murders and that will have to be part of the conversation. And it's not an easy one, it means some introspection and looking in the mirror. It ain't always pretty. But the US is so far above and beyond every other nation in its league in terms of killing each other--maybe it's time for a tough conversation. Latching on to a piece of the constitution written centuries ago in an entirely different context makes no sense and is just a refuge for those that don't want to talk.

And there will always be those people, that's fine. Just like there are those that say 'ban all guns' or whatever. But like everything political, the vast majority sits somewhere in the middle, relatively silently. You need to tap into them.
