The knee jerk and overly emotional reaction to gun violence in our country can only lead us down the path of further destruction. Now I know this is not politically correct and to many people in the denial stage what I am about to say amounts to heresy. Additional legislation will not solve anything. Criminals, after all, are criminals and simply will not follow the law. Experience also disctates that many judges will not follow the law to its logical conclusion opting instead for a more 'social work' kind of resolution. The studies of John Lott and the realities of Chicago clearly and factually demonstrate that if people are trained gun owners the violence will be curbed. I ask you to look closely at this and use your powers of deduction over that easy and lizard-like splash of emotion before considering what will amount to the erosion of our rights.
