Williams could also stand to read the other threads here on FR, in which it is elucidated that gun control has never been motivated by a desire to control crime: it's driven by an ideological and sociological drive by elites to control, disarm, dominate, and tyrannize the rest of the citizenry, a.k.a. "the lower orders". It has zero to do with public safety -- and is in fact a threat to public safety.
