In recent weeks, mass shootings and related arrests across the U.S. have made a comeback.
Maybe it’s a very sick sign that our COVID recovery is underway. The carnage begs the usual question: “Does this mean there is a need for gun control?”
Pro-gun activists say the “rare” mentally ill are to blame for the shootings. Opponents say the shootings reveal toxic behavior unrelated to mental illness and are demanding full gun control reform. |

Well, BJ (may I call you BJ? Thank you.), try stopping a thug from killing you with just your brain.

TO REMEMBER |
| We'll take one step at a time, and the first is necessarily - given the political realities - very modest. We'll have to start working again to strengthen the law, and then again to strengthen the next law and again and again. Our ultimate goal, total control of handguns, is going to take time. The first problem is to slow down production and sales. Next is to get registration. The final problem is to make possession of all handguns and ammunition (with a few exceptions) totally illegal. — Pete Shields, founder of Handgun Control, Inc., New Yorker Magazine, June 26, 1976, pg. 53 |
