Seriously. In the wake of yet another mass shooting, we get calls to do something that would have not changed the outcome of said shooting - like preventing no-fly list people from obtaining weapons. How about some "jihadi control" instead? But maybe we should ban "crock pots" as Obama called the pressure cookers used by the Tsarnev brothers. - Or perhaps he knew about the WMD material cooked up by wife with one of those things. I'm just not sure anymore. Theatre of the absurd.
