And what is surprising is that it continues to decline after mass shootings.
My theory is that people are getting that gun free zones give shooters free reign.

I keep telling you that liberals are realizing that to many conservatives needs shooting for them to continue to support gun controll. Here in arizona we are trying to form the mexican-american anti- racist armed militia to protect the mexican community from joe arpaio and the rest of the tea bagger racists so we can protect the mexican community from republican racists by shooting back!
Local militia? Great! Welcome to the federalist party, cap*.
The statists lost their gun control mojo due the erroneous predictions they made regarding what would happen if concealed carry laws were liberalized.
Over the last 15-20 years, several states have removed many restrictions on concealed carry laws, basically making them “shall issue” permits that can only be denied to citizens for certain specific reasons. The statists (aka liberals) were certain that these changes would increase gun violence dramatically. They warned that changing these laws would return us to the days of Dodge City in the Old West. They claimed shootings would be routine at vehicle accidents and at bars and taverns. I think a few of them predicted the horrible prospect of cats and dogs living together should the reforms pass.
The reforms garnered enough public and political support so that the laws were revised despite the fear-mongering of the statists. And embarrassingly for the statists, their dire predictions turned out to be completely, utterly wrong. It’s been a fail of epic proportions for the statists on this issue. The matter isn’t even debatable.
The statists lost all credibility on gun rights issues because they turned out to be so incredibly wrong on their concealed carry predictions. Voters in the center and on the right plainly see this. The failure of the statists on this issue has moved the majority of the electorate away from gun control, IMO.
Of course, the fact that the statists’ dire predictions never materialized doesn’t cause the gun controllers to re-think their premises on the overall issue. On the contrary, the need for more gun control is still an article of faith for the statists. Their failure here doesn’t phase them one bit and most seem to act like it never happened.
There are none so blind as those who will not see.
I am sure the parents of the dead children at newtown will be impressed.
@cap
Argument from emotion appeal. Is that all you got cap?
Some of those parents are probably conservative, cap*. You say you want to kill them, so why would we believe you care about them?
