Another anomalous fact in the periphery of the overall gun control debate, is that gun ownership in the US is increasing while gun crime (and particularly murder) is decreasing. One of my favorites, as mentioned in my last post, is that there are states that achieve the same rates of firearm related homocide as nations that have banned (or severely restricted) guns. Some of those states have such lax gun laws that they, effectively, have -no- gun laws.
My personal opinion, is that the gun control "debate" is little more than a political lever which can be used to achieve a given politicians ends. He knows that he can rely on a vote x.....and that gives him the opportunity for riders. A way that well meaning people are manipulated into supporting legislation wich will not achieve the end they wish to see realized.
yeah or you know we could go back to muskets and six shooters
