"Today the Institute for Policy Research at The University of Cincinnati (Ohio) released a poll (pdf) of 804 random Ohioans. This poll is both flawed and misleading to say the least. The title of the poll itself is 'Substantial Majority Continues To Oppose Concealed-Carry', yet the poll simply did not ask those being polled if they were in favor of or opposed to making it legal to carry a firearm for self-defense."

The Consumer Federation of America (CFA) says that guns should be regulated for safety like any other consumer product. The consumer group is supporting legislation that would give the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) regulatory power over firearms, such as the authority to recall or even ban guns and to set standards for trigger locks.

John R. Lott Jr., senior research scholar at the Yale University Law School, wrote that the media emphasizes coverage of mass shootings but rarely reports on incidents where a citizen saved a life with a gun. "Few people realize that civilians use guns defensively to stop about 2 million crimes a year, five times more often than guns are used to commit crimes," said Lott, citing national surveys.

~~In an unusual piece, the Violence Policy Center (VPC) "found" that most high-profile shooters used legally aquired guns. If this is true, then the logical conclusion is that anti-gun laws are meaningless. If this is not true, then is it equally logical to conclude that anti-gun laws are meaningless.

Though law enforcement officials have traced three of the guns fired by Luther Casteel at JB's Pub early Saturday morning, their origin provided little information as to how the convicted felon came to possess the weapons.

The guns could have changed hands hundreds of times in the last two to three decades, officials said. But police do believe they were never stolen nor were they ever "legally" purchased from another gun store or gun show.

Public Health and Gun Control: A Review Part II: Gun Violence and Constitutional Issues, BY Miguel A. Faria Jr., M.D.
 

 QUOTES TO REMEMBER
You are bound to meet misfortune if you are unarmed because, among other reasons, people despise you....There is simply no comparison between a man who is armed and one who is not. It is unreasonable to expect that an armed man should obey one who is unarmed, or that an unarmed man should remain safe and secure when his servants are armed. In the latter case, there will be suspicion on the one hand and contempt on the other, making cooperation impossible. — Niccolo Machiavelli in "The Prince."
