Very good article by Tim at GunNuts.  (He's got a whole section of good stuff out there, take some time to read his articles.)

http://www.gunnuts.net/2013/12/18/sure-the-gun-control-didnt-work-this-time-but-it-will-we-promise/

My favorite section:
"This is the Pollyanna refrain of gun control. Something terrible happens somewhere and a bunch of people with boiling grudges against the idea of firearms freedom run to the scene and splash around in the blood in front of the cameras, wearing sackcloth and ashes and weeping about how we need to pass X legislation to stop this thing from happening. Then the horrible thing happens again, exactly the thing they said the laws were supposed to stop, but they assure you that either it’s going to work one day or what we really need to do is double down on what has already been proven as a failure."

Worth reading.
