"It's hard to study whether gun control laws work in this country because we have so few of them. Talking about studying gun control in this country is like talking about studying democracy in Iraq." -- Peter Hamm, spokesman for the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence Ownership.

For the record, there are more than 20,000 gun control laws in the United States, and the firearms industry is heavily regulated. Perhaps someone from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms could call Hamm to let him know.
