The gun-control movement is driven by raw emotion. Facts are irrelevant.
Logic is spurned.
Utter nonsense is solemly intoned. It's little wonder that our most emotive president has made gun control his signature domestic issue. But if he can't have it, he can help frame the debate to help his party. In pursuit of these goals, the president employs typically overblown rhetoric. It's either trigger locks or the Constitution is crumpled and representative government ceases to exist.
