When Will They Ever Learn?

A lone gunman shot and killed 33 people at Virginia Tech. And then White House spokesperson Dana Perino says:

As far as policy, the President believes that there is a right for people to bear arms, but that all laws must be followed.

John McCain opined:

“We have to look at what happened here, but it doesn't change my views on the Second Amendment, except to make sure that these kinds of weapons don't fall into the hands of bad people," McCain said while campaigning in this Texas-Mexico border city.

"I do believe in the constitutional right that everyone has, in the Second Amendment to the Constitution, to carry a weapon," he said. "Obviously we have to keep guns in the hands of law-abiding citizens."

Sigh.
