This is a pretty comprehensive look at the state of gun laws and pretty evenly balanced in presenting the views of both gun supports and gun-control advocates. But it veers into wishful thinking at the end:
Gun regulations, while complicated and cumbersome, are the answer to eliminating gun violence, according to Berarducci.
“This is all about partnerships,” he said. “We work closely with county, city and state law enforcement” to enforce the laws on the books.
“That's why we're successful in what we do.”
Gun regulations can't even control who has guns, let alone how they are used. The only answer to lessening gun violence (not "eliminating," alas) is to be serious about punishing people who use guns to commit (rather than defend against) violence.
