I agree, though I think it has been out of hand for quite a while already. It is definitely interesting to see these things unravel, almost as if it was a giant conspiracy and everything has already been planned out, with the various representatives taking pre-set positions on the matter.Janet Napolitano, head of the Department of Homeland Security, released a statement Wednesday saying she is "proud to support" the Obama administration's efforts to "combat gun violence in our country." Here's more from Napolitano's statement:
In the aftermath of the tragic Newtown shooting, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), together with the Department of Justice (DOJ), and the FBI have worked to identify measures that could be taken to reduce the risk of mass casualty shootings. In the coming days, DHS will expand and formalize coordination of ongoing efforts intended to prevent future mass casualty shootings, improve preparedness, and to strengthen security and resilience in schools and other potential targets. DHS will work with partners at all levels of government, to address five critical areas intended to reduce the risk of mass casualty shootings in the United States: Prevention, Protection, Response, Education, and Research/Evaluation. DHS will also work with law enforcement to refresh, expand and prioritize the implementation of nationwide public awareness efforts such as the “If You See Something, Say Something™” campaign. This is a critical issue that requires immediate attention and I look forward to supporting the President and this Administration as we move ahead.

*Calls 911* Hi, yes, I just saw my neighbor put a rifle and an ammo can in the trunk of their car and I fear they are going to use it.
*dispatcher* Okay, thank you sir, i've dispatched a squad and they should be there momentarily. Please stay inside, but can you tell me the make/model of the car?
Sigh, things really could get out of control much quicker than that even. I pray it doesn't come to that, I really do.
But I'll tell you this, if one of my neighbors calls me in, I'll know which one it was and I'll take my dog over to their yard EVERYDAY to take a nice big poop on their lawn, err, rocks, cause its the desert.
Was just talking about this with a co worker, looks like very discreet transport is in my near future. Guitar cases and duffle bags....
Thank you comrad you are a true citizen

The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.
