Americans for Responsible Solutions

The title above is the name of a new organization started by Gabrielle Giffords and Mark Kelly.  Two years ago today, Giffords and others were shot at a Tucson parking lot.  Today they started an organization that will " invite people from around the country to join a national conversation about gun violence prevention, will raise the funds necessary to balance the influence of the gun lobby, and will line up squarely behind leaders who will stand up for what's right."

They have introduced their organization with an op-ed in USA Today.  In their article they ask that we reverse the position that " gun owners are less responsible for the misuse of their weapons than they are for their automobiles."

I'm in.
