“How serious are Americans about buying guns? Enough to apply for a background check to buy one. How many Americans have applied for a background check since the day Obama was inaugurated? Go on. Guess. The answer: over 70 million. Think about this. Over 70 million adult Americans went to the trouble of identifying themselves as gun owners. This sends a message to Congress: ‘Don’t mess with our guns.’ This sends a message to gun control advocates: ‘You haven’t got the votes.’ Talk about futility. Gun controllers say that they represent the true feelings of Americans on guns. But where is their evidence?”
