Second Amendment absolutist's heads to explode. My rights! Interstate commerce! Regulation of private sales! Freedom! Americans are beginning to see that the "well regulated" part of the Second Amendment is much more important than the "keep and bear arms" part, and the momentum for sensible regulations and restraints on guns is growing steadily.

This is a small step in the correct direction, but it is a step forward.
