Cards on the table. I am in favor of gun control, against political vitriol; neither guns nor catchy political hyperbole seem to promote a more peaceful society. That said, Jared Loughner appears to be very disturbed. It is hard to know what societal factors may set someone like that off.
That said, it is not a useful time for polemics; the political infighting seems unmindful of the pain and loss of the victims, and, given the immediate leap to the backlash, not useful for the promotion of any particular cause.
