You are on the wrong side of public opinion...

Why are liberals so anti-science?
Violent crime is plummeting in this country while it is either rising or holding steady in countries with strict gun control measures. Why would we want to increase our violent crime rate?

Plus look at the areas in this country where violent crime rates are high...it isn't NRA/Tea Party strongholds.

Ok, I've read some good arguments here. I tend to be a Devil's Advocate in conversations. It seems to get the debate moving along. I guess the crux of the problem is figuring out how to keep the weaponry off the streets and out of the hands of the more negative elements of society. How do we go about accomplishing that?

You won't. Bad people do bad things, since the beginning of time. If there are no guns, there will be knives, clubs, baseball bats, even frying pans have killed people. Swift, decisive punishment is all that can be done. It won't stop someone from being bad... but it will stop someone from being bad again.

Americans under 40 don't hunt nearly as much as previous generations and they are bright enough to see the lunacy of private citizens being allowed to purchase assault rifles. I guess what I am saying is that much stricter gun control is coming because it is demographically inevitable.
Actually polling has shown that Millenials don't differ much at all on views of gun control than the older generations. I remember a thread on here a few months back with an article that showed 70% of young voters support assault rifle ownership.
Gun rights have expanded tremendously the past 4 years. Gun Control isn't happening anytime soon. Clinton in 1994 passed an assault weapons ban. The Democrat controlled Senate couldn't do that last year....hell they couldn't pass any type of gun control.
It's not gonna happen. It's a losing issue for Democrats. Deal with it

One of the all-time most idiotic moves by a Senate Majority Leader in history - holding his party's prize gun control vote two days after the Boston Marathon bombings, on a day when the suspects had not yet been identified and most of the country was collectively in no mood to think about taking any action that was even perceived to be potentially restricting or limiting their self-defense options.
Whether it was Reid's idea to proceed with the vote on that particular day, or the Administration's, it was politically illogical. Not because the actual vote count would have been any different if taken a week earlier or two weeks later, but because Obama's Rose Garden speech, complete with whining and gnashing of teeth, to the nation right after the vote, and his perceived focus on a pet political issue on a day when the rest of the country was awaiting news and answers regarding the bombing, displayed personal and political arrogance of the highest order. It fell on deaf ears, and properly so.
That day epitomized how out of touch Obama was, and is, with the mindset of the masses.

Hardly. The left has been getting killed, heh, KILLED, on this issue. Have you been paying attention recently?

I think maybe you need a mental health screening.
There are already gun control laws on the books!
In case you have never been on this board (which by your post count I know you have), here is a bit of information for you.........CRIMINALS DO NOT OBEY THE LAW!!!!!!!!

Not too fast my friend... I hear Christie has consulted with Mike Huckabee on this matter and Bert doesn't care.
