You mean exactly the same response as the "fingers-in-their-ear, only the police and military should have guns, ban all guns" crowd has been for the last week?

The anti-gun crowd doesn't want to have a conversation. Anything other than the NRA saying "yes we agree. Those scary black guns that are not at all 'military-style assault rifles' should be banned." will be met with cried of how the NRA wants more children to die.

Here's the #1 clue that the anti-gun crowd is operating on emotion, as opposed to reason:
They use catch phrases like "common sense", "reasonable reform" and "win-win" without any empirical support because none of the factual statistics support their emotionally-charged, irrational claims.
