I attend a bible study with some guys twice a month. I know some of them will bring up Orlando and gun control. So, in preparation, I found this excellent website.
It's probably been posted on this form at some time, but it is really a good site. I am going to print the page to PDF and carry it with me on my iPad.

There's always a liberal or two in a group, even a Christian group.

Good info presented on the site, but more recent decisions such as Heller change the landscape a bit on two of the section.
