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. |

TO REMEMBER |
| I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
