Firearm related news has seemingly dominated the cycles as of late. With each shooting and subsequent follow-up/copycat shooting the coverage focus intensifies. What should be banned, what new pointless laws should be instituted, gun show loopholes, private sales, force registration of all guns etc… The cable news channels must love it, this level of discourse, debate and divisiveness allows them to easily fill their time allotments.

Bills like the AW Ban and the PATRIOT Act were kneejerk reactions to crises and provisions like ones in the NDAA (2012) slip into bills that get passed when no one is paying attention to it.
