This past 4th of July weekend in Chicago was particularly bloody.
In approximately eight hours, gun violence took the lives of eight people, including a 7-year-old named Amari Brown, and wounded 55 others. This is just another in a long list of examples, including Newtown, and Charleston, that shows why we need drastic change in our gun policies.
Gun rights advocates seem astute at blaming everything from lack of mental healthcare to pervasive poverty for gun violence. Some even justify gun ownership for self-defense. Strangely, it appears like it is everything, but the gun. |

| Contrary to the unsubstantiated claims of the anti-gun crowd, most gun owners know firearms are not sentient. That is they have no will of their own, cannot exert 'influence' on those handling them or act of their own volition. So those 'excuse seekers' will always find another 'excuse' to justify their phobia. England has pretty much eliminate private firearms ownership. But it still has gun crime and crimes with knives are increasing. Now its 'banners' are turning to knives. IOW there's no end to the illogical rantings of any nation's phobiacs . |
