Quote of the day
Radley Balko on gun laws in DC:
It’s interesting that crime-fighting ideas requiring the citizenry to give up some of its freedoms are “innovative,” while proposals that would give some freedom back are “dangerous.”
Police in the District are killed at a rate about six times higher than the national rate, a statistic that hardly suggests that the District’s ban on law-abiding citizens protecting their homes has helped protect the police.
