Having trouble keeping track of all the gun related legislation going around lately? Yeah, me too. Well the Wall Street Journal has put together a nice summary of all the legislation enacted or sent to the governor since the Newtown tragedy.

You can see the actual legislation and status of each bill at the Wall Street Journal.

Besides being a great resource that I wanted to share, I think there’s also something important we can learn from this map: there are more states enacting pro-gun laws than there are enacting anti-gun laws.

While this is encouraging, it also reinforces something for me. For quite some time now I have been worried that gun control is heading down a States’ Rights path, and I’ll be honest in saying that I fear where it might lead. This country is becoming more and more polarized, a polarization that we haven’t seen since the issue of slavery in the early to mid 1800’s.

That isn’t a good thing by any measure.
