I like to talk about Chicago, where gun control is tight, while
criminals have no trouble getting their guns, and the gun crime rate
is the highest in the nation. But Chicago is not the worst example of
the fallacy of anti-gun laws. Every large city with tight anti-gun
laws has correspondingly high gun crime statistics. But that’s not
the whole story: In Mexico, where
the anti-gun laws are really draconian, and where only ONE PERCENT of
Mexicans can legally buy guns, the gun crime rate has DOUBLED since
those laws were written and imposed upon the people. This is but one
more
instance
that proves my point. But the anti-gun fools, as usual, are not
listening. They have a “tin ear” to facts that disprove their
ignorant theories. They see these things, and then go on to make more
and more stupid anti-gun laws they SAY reduces gun crime, while they
do
NOT. They
only INCREASE it by making “easy targets” of the law-abiding, who
DO obey their laws, while criminals (who obey NO laws) predictably do
not. What
drives them, I don’t know. I only know their ideas are worthless,
and deadly to those who obey them, while they make it easier for the
lawless to victimize the law-abiding. (John Lott)
