It is an odd and misguided exercise to attempt to find particular politicians or the NRA to blame in the defeat of the latest gun bill effort. The blame actually goes to a large chunk of the American people: the ones for whom gun worship is as much a part of their psyche as the worship of God or Jesus. This widespread, religious-like worship of guns is the reason nothing will happen in gun-control legislation.
