A Struggle to Disarm People Without Gun Rights

Interesting article in the New York Times online site.."A Struggle to Disarm People Without Gun Rights".

Not about new or more gun laws, but the struggle to enforce the laws already on the books and the tools
for addressing people who purchased the firearm legally but since have become felons, adjudicated as a mental defective, domestic violence, etc..

My opinion is this issue is critical, but want to guess where the law makers/enforcers will concentrate.....10 round limit for magazines !! A lot easier for them to process and a heck of a lot cheaper.

And the public ignorance can be equally frustrating. A woman is quoted in a recent Time Magazine saying, "apparently the NRA doesn't realize the Arizona shooter was disabled by unarmed citizens." Yeah, after the time elapsed for him to shoot 19 people. I'm not particularly quick, but my timed draw from concealment and firing three shots is 3.8 seconds. I would like to think he would have had a lot less than "19 people" time.
