And appropo of this thread, gun massacres and violence will continue unabated until the Democrats pass comprehensive gun control including civilian bans on weapons of war. More and more supporters of gun control appear and get active after each massacre.

The Founding Fathers were perfectly capable of writing a Constitution to prevent just that.  You can try to spend political capital and lose votes in the process, stalling other changes, but you will achieve nothing.  I don't know that this is particularly wise, even though you might be sincere in holding your beliefs.  

Lots of folks are sincere in their beliefs.

The place of least resistance is having psychiatrist identify the high risk suicide prone people and use that in your perpetual attempt at prohibition.  Unfortunately, I don't see how much this will help.  Prohibition has not worked.  Unfortunately suicide by cop and making a profit off news coverage of said events has become part of the culture.  Trying to get the news people involved in stopping their link in the spiral of violence seems futile.  How do you stop someone from enhancing their profits?

We just need to focus on things that might be done and promise a return on investment.  We need to come together, rather than have the news radio pundits and late night comics profit over splitting folks apart.
