Imagine That

July 3rd, 2008 · No Comments

By Jim Wooten at The Atlanta Journal-Constitution:

Imagine that. The Second Amendment is real. We can keep and bear arms. Now let’s agree that when a gun is used to commit a crime, the problem is with the shooter and not with the weapon.

Guns are no more evil than automobiles, swimming pools, or ladders. When used incorrectly or for bad purposes they can cause injury. When used correctly or for good purposes they can save lives.

You want to make a dent in the crime rate? Do something about getting criminals off the streets, not the guns.
