2/6/13 - The "national conversation" about gun control has become a distinctly circular one in recent weeks. With nearly two months having elapsed since the tragic massacre in Newtown, Connecticut, gun control advocates and opponents have made their arguments, debated the merits of the other's positions and, for the most part, have agreed to disagree. But for gun control advocates, the conversation never ends -- even if the only people still listening are those already in agreement. A case in that point was made today when a cavalcade of Hollywood stars joined several prominent Democratic politicians to "demand a plan" to address gun violence. 

Joining a handful of Democratic mayors, Congressmen and appointed officials today for a news conference with the object of demanding a plan — or, more accurately, legislative action of any kind without regard for its efficacy -- were celebrities like Amanda Peet, Tony Bennett, and Chris Rock.
