Another School Shooting

It's just a rumor, this time in Trinidad, Colorado, and more calls for useless, restrictive gun laws. Laws that restrict the right of honest Americans to carry guns for self-protection while criminals still get their guns easily. It’s easier for a criminal to get a gun where gun laws are the tightest because criminal gun sellers flock to places where gun laws are the tightest. They know the local criminals will need many more guns to victimize those honest people who OBEY the laws that say they can’t be armed. They just never learn: the tighter their gun laws become, the more criminals use guns to victimize unarmed people. The looser gun laws are, the less crime there is because honest, armed people keep it down and criminals know that, so they stay away. If politicians learned this simple lesson (too simple for them, maybe?) the “gun problem” would go away in an instant. Robert Heinlein said, "An armed society is a polite society." But they don’t want that. They simply want to disarm honest people and they’re doing it. (KKTV)
