The news media and the politicians think that they are in the "entertainment" business; they give their "audience" whatever they think the audience wants. Speaking for myself...I get irritated when I see people trying to take my gun away from me. But I get even more angry when I see the NRA opposing the proper documentation and training of gun-users. BOTH sides have taken leave of their senses...IMO.
