Great question.

Plain and simple; gun control does not work. The only people who are affected by gun control laws, are the people who buy them legally. The criminals don't care about gun laws. In fact, criminals are probably in favor of more restrictive gun laws. If you were a criminal, intent on breaking into a house and robbing(or worse) somebody, which house would you rather break into? The house in Kentucky, with little restrictive gun laws, or the house in Washington, D.C., with very restrictive gun laws? Odds are, the criminal would rather break into the house with less of a chance of his sorry ass getting shot. Just a thought.
The Obama is the enemy of gun owners, BTW. Make no mistake about it, he(and Clinton, Schumer, etc...) does want to find a way to take away guns. Like them or not, the NRA is the best organization we have to fight the gun grabbers.
