LA Times Promotes "No Gun Control?"

This article seems to do that, because one of their writers finally realizes some of the simple truths we have been telling them about for years. One of those being that gun murder rates have gone DOWN in recent years in “some places.” What they don’t mention is that those places are where gun laws aren’t as tight as they’d like hem to be. They talk about there “being no ‘drive-by poisonings’ or ‘drive-by knifings,’ “ but completely ignore the fact that ALL the “drive-by shootings” have been done by people who don’t buy guns legally. So their laws will not stop them. They talk about there being 260 million guns out there CAUSING high death rates, ignoring the fact that people killed people BEFORE there were guns. “Back in the day,” they all carried knives or swords—or further back, CLUBS to kill with. Guns do NOT “cause” the death rate. They just make it easier. And when something better than guns comes along, IT will be blamed—not the PEOPLE who USE it to kill people. Such is the result of illogical thinking. They talk about our murder rate here being THREE TIMES that in Great Britain, completely ignoring that our population is much HIGHER than in GB. This is how the language is used to fool and confuse us. (LA Times)
