Dear Connecticut...

Legislative effort never is. It's the journey, forget about the destination.

if it was easy, it would have been done already.

Amen.

Sinning again and again doesn't absolve you from the need to pray though!

Firearms owners have always been legally liable for their use. The typical law-abiding gun owner is a homeowner who already carries liability insurance.

But, in the case of Sandy Hook, the law-abiding gun-owning homeowner is dead too (the shooters mother).

Her liability insurance didn't end with her death. When the inevitable lawsuits hit, you can bet that her insurer will pay the policy limits and the rest will come out of her estate until there's nothing left.

With a 12 gauge shotgun, not anything that would be affected by any proposed changes in gun laws.

Isn't a pain in the butt when a gun can be used for multiple purposes?  We'll never resolve this to everyone's satisfaction.

No, we won't.

Amen, amen.
