Well politically the NRA is a massive force for intimidation. Right after Sandy Hook there was support for some fairly mild gun control where it doesn't exist, but all it took was the NRA making an example with some attack ads and that was that. Americans certainly wouldn't support sweeping gun control legislation, but even those minor changes they might support won't happen as long as the NRA can just scare politicians into submission.
