When will it be the time?

After the recent shooting in Boulder the pro-gun groups have said now is not the time to talk about reforms, so as an outsider looking in Americans when will be the time and why?

The culture around guns in America fascinates me I am curious to where you stand and why I know this is a polarising subject so please try and be respectful to others views.

I support gun ownership. I hunted and went to a range as a younger man.

a simple review of timelines will show that the gun lobby has used the language of the second amendment to help fuel demand for weapons that the writers of the second could not imagine.

the original intent was talking about a muzzle loader...

...you bet, people kill people... guns have no will..

There has been a misrepresentation to weak minds regarding the need for such weapons.

no good has resulted from the public availability of the assault weapon.
