    It was clear, it was that the article is clearly an editorial. I want to know if there's information he's not including here. I'm curious because I don't know enough about the subject.

      I also don't care for editorials, or statistics from either side, but the facts are clear just like cheezoncrack graciously explained above:

      1. Gun control advocates have been pushing for an assault weapons ban - the killer used a handgun

      2. Gun control advocates have pushed for magazine limitations - the killer reloaded several times

      3. Gun control advocates have pushed for "universal" background checks (that exclude gifts from family members) - the killer was gifted the gun from a family member.

      Weather or not the rest of the article sounds like opinion, the facts are simple, all of the "common sense" gun control measures proposed do nothing to stop the high profile tragedies that are continuously capitalized on to push these measures.
