You are absolutely wrong about the Brady Campaign's objectives. They have never supported a total ban on firearms and I think you know that.
They support background checks, registration, mandatory safety locks, etc. They did support an extension of the assault weapons ban as did Pres Bush and many Republicans (but not enough)
If you have any documentation that supports your mistaken conclusion about their objectives, please post it.
Are these FBI Uniform Crime Report stats I posted skewed?
* Concerning the relationships (if known) of murder victims and offenders, 22.4 percent of victims were slain by family members
*Concerning the circumstances surrounding murders, arguments (including romantic triangles) comprised 27.1 percent of reported murder circumstances
