text:  To change a public law, you've got to actually go to the people's representatives and say, we'd like you to outlaw this. And then the representatives either say yes or no. Fact is, for the most part, the representatives have said no. Conservatives on Capitol Hill, and there are far too few of those these days, they've said no because they don't believe that we need more gun laws. What we need is more laws that lock people up.
