Seems there are a lot burglars in GA ! This 'statistic' seems more an indictment of GA's judiciary and penal system than a reflection on GA's firearms merchants or owners. OTOH, if GA is such a rich source of 'crime guns' why isn't ATF and the FBI moving into the fray ? Or does setting up 'sting ops' on middle-aged malcontents seem more appealing ? Or perhaps the current state of affairs is more congruent with the administration's anti-gun meme ?

These stats are meaningless as they can only cite firearms that are traceable(or those they choose to trace). Hopefully there will always be millions Big Brother doesn't know about. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
