Dont bet much on that. We are for sure better off than last year but this was an attack on 'them' and they may move to fix it, quickly.
Define "them." Gabrielle Giffords was a supporter of the 2nd Amendment to some extent. She signed on the Congressional brief in support of Heller.

Just as a thought experiment, let's picture Lautenberg's bill being proposed. What committee would approve it? How would it pass a (largely conservative) Republican-dominated House, much less in the Senate?

While a small minority in some quarters are blaming the gun, most people from all over the political spectrum are blaming the person.
