And it is amazing that Americans are apparently more concerned with "Terrorism" than gun violence. I have to give credit to the NRA, they have done a remarkable job keeping Americans distracted from the daily violence and harm caused by firearms. Astonishingly enough they have done this by fear mongering off the very same violence their product perpetuates for the most part. That message coupled with an imagined loss of a constitutional right has been very effective.
