Sorry, but that position deserves a gigantic 'fuck you'. This IS a political issue. Now IS the time. It is NOT too soon. How can your own delaying tactics not make you sick at your stomach? You people are so terrified that someone, somewhere might take serious action to limit the access of lunatics to firearms that you never, EVER stop playing this goddam waiting game.
Meanwhile, more and more little kids are butchered, more and more parents have to deal with horrific losses, and the carnage continues apace, because far too many USians think the Second Amendment is some sort of a Vestal Virgin that must never be sullied, and damn the cost in human lives.
'Hold off on the gun control politics'...for WHAT?

It's why US gun manufacturers and their lobbying arms like the NRA, etc nearly always go completely silent after mass shootings. Their pro gun positions are indefensible (like fighting against criminal background checks for gun buyers) and they're terrified of engaging in a debate that they know they won't win.

Yes, it is the same greed that big oil spent all the money to lobby to keep lead in gas. The same bullshit car companies paid lobbyists to fight Nadar when he told the truth about how bad their products sucked.
