Another week means another spate of new gun control policy proposals from the camps of the Democratic Presidential Candidates. But are they telling the whole story?
As the Democratic candidates try to out-socialism one another, they are also trying to out-gun-control one another. What they aren’t telling us is that their policy proposals won’t make us any safer, no matter how nice they might sound.
To be clear, we all want deaths using firearms —or using any other method— to go down. But it’s important to implement solutions that have been demonstrated to be helpful. It’s not enough for a proposal to feel right or to sound good; it must actually work. |

| I fear the a hole that decides that a bomb would be better than a rifle. The odds of surviving a mass shooting are much greater that a bomb blast. |

TO REMEMBER |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
