"'John Lott was originally supposed to be on C-SPAN for an hour to discuss these issues with Ted Alcorn, the research director for Michael Bloomberg’s Everytown,' Lott’s crimeresearchcenter.org reports. 'But Alcorn would not appear at the same time and insisted that he be allowed to appear after Lott.' When pressed on the issue by a caller [as above], Alcorn dismissed his detractors as unworthy due to their lack of credibility. Incredible, eh? We won’t deign to debate because our opponents aren’t concerned about 'gun violence.' If you believe that, I have an assault weapons ban I’d like you to consider." ... |

| Well, if you can't "win the debate" because a your opponent(s) are going to deal in facts, why not take the self-declared "high road" and refuse debate ?

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 |
