That's true, but the more we move to make such transactions and possession unlawful and the more we move against people who perpetrate them, the more success we will have. You know, it's funny, even the NRA says, ``Well, we ought to prosecute crimes.'' Well, we ought to make the right things crimes, and we ought to make it unlawful for children to possess these weapons. We ought to make it unlawful for people to sell them to them or to transfer to them, and we ought to close the loopholes in the law. And as we do that, we will make a difference. Also, keep in mind that the Littleton example is not the only example that we have to be mindful of. There are 13 children a day who are shot in America, who lose their lives, in ones and twos on the streets. Mr. Gibson. There's a Littleton every day.
