Or you could support AIMM and help protect your second amendment rights from the well meaning, but ignorant, people who would see us all be victims.

Whichever.

The rampant proliferation of gun violence makes victims of us all.

All the more reason to have a gun. That guy mugging you is certainly not going to be put off by a gun-lock or a waiting period.

For that matter, neither is the next little kid who lives in a crack house.

Think about it.

Yup. That town in Georgia, whose name I mentioned in another thread ("capital punishment", I think).

Would *you* break into a house if you *knew* you were likely to get plugged?

More guns, less crime? Why, the United States should be the safest place in the world! The logic is so pretty and beautiful, it tells us so!

What? It ISN'T? Uh, you're misinterpreting the results of the study we funded.
