60 Minutes
I highly recommend tonight's 60 Minutes report titled "Gun Rush."
The last few seconds are actually quite encouraging. Feinstein states she will not be looking to press the ban anytime soon, and recommends that Obama puts it off as well.
Additionally, Gallup polls are at their lowest ever (49%) when asking Americans if they are in favor of stricter gun control.

For Americans war is almost all of the time a nuisance, and military skill is a luxury like Mah-Jongg. But when the issue is brought home to them, war becomes as important, for the necessary period, as business or sport. And it is hard to decide which is likely to be the more ominous for the [terrorists] -- an American decision that this is sport, or that it is business.
