Common Sense Gun Laws...where is it?

Is it asking too much for 2nd Amendment & gun law supporters to find a gray area to settle down in...peacefully? You know, like agreeing that gun ownership is a perfectly fine right, but that being able to mow through a crowd of people in the time it takes to light a cigarette is a little overkill?

Seriously...who are there so many people on either side of the debate and (apparently) so few in the common sense middle-ground?
