Go, Raso:
Every law-abiding blind individual should be able to have whatever guns they want. And if you disagree with that statement, if you haven’t thought it all the way through, you don’t take your rights seriously enough. Do you think because they’re blind, they’re going to start shooting in every direction and kill everyone.
I don’t necessarily think that, but I do know that a bullet leaves the barrel of a handgun at about 1,200ft per second and it’s favorite way of stopping is by hitting something or someone. It is very indiscriminate that way. It is already hard enough to hit something with a handgun, even if you are trained and have better than average vision. A report issued in 2008 said that New York City policeman hit their target “roughly 34 percent of the time,” which is a great batting average for a baseball player, but not so much for lethal lead slugs flying willy-nilly about, looking for a place to rest.
