Quote of the day
Jerry Parsons in a letter to the editor:
I know how to get a 99.9% “yes” response on a question about gun control. You merely ask anybody “Are you in favor of a law that will keep dangerous guns out of the hands of criminals?” I also know a way to silence 100% of the lawmakers, activists and other believers in unicorns. You merely ask them, “Could you please define a law that will keep dangerous guns out of the hands of criminals?” The response would be universal silence, as there is not, never has been, nor ever will be such a law, and criminals do not obey laws.
He goes on to say:
Even the most ardent supporters of the assault gun ban admit that it has been totally ineffective, so why does The Times keep pushing the gun control myth?
Indeed.
