The movie theater massacre in Aurora, Colo., has provoked the usual calls for stricter gun control. Surely, liberals argue, we can do without 100-round drum magazines such as the one the Colorado killer is said to have used.

The most telling sign nothing will happen is that President Barack Obama, a believer in strong gun control laws, has remained mute and motionless on the topic—after the Tucson supermarket spree in January 2011, and now, again, after Aurora.
