Alabama has received an F for its gun laws and is the fifth worst state in the nation for deaths from gun violence, according to a new national study.
The grading came from the Annual Gun Law Scorecard from the Giffords Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence, out this week. The ranking is tabulated comparing gun legislation in all 50 states, assigning point values to laws and policies based on their strengths or weaknesses. The center is a public interest organization based in San Francisco, founded in 1993. |

I'm an Alabamian, and I say we have pretty good gun laws. Many murders are drug related and yes we DO have a problem with those. More serious gun laws WILL NOT REDUCE THOSE TRAGEDIES. |

It's a study from San Francisco. No wonder. Libtard answer to crime: ban guns so honest people cannot defend themselves from people armed with illegal guns - - - - - - or knives. |

QUOTES
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]. |
