This week Barack Obama was in Colorado, meeting the victims of the latest slaughter of innocents, this one in a packed cinema showing the latest gunfire- and explosion-laced Batman movie. Twelve people died, 58 were injured and, had not the perpetrator's semi-automatic weapon jammed, the toll would surely have been much higher. Mr Obama dispensed a dollop of rhetoric, condoled with the victims' families, and proposed to do precisely nothing about the easy availability of guns in America. At the other end of the country his Republican challenger, Mitt Romney, proposed precisely nothing either, even though as governor of Massachusetts he once presided over one of the tightest gun-control regimes in the union.
