I was listening to NPR on the drive home from work yesterday and they had some liberal college professor talking about gun control. This professor freely admitted that the previous Clinton-era AWB had no measurable impact on crime whatsoever but that we needed one anyways because assault weapons "scare our national psyche" and "we'd feel better" if they were banned.
At least he was honest.
no he wasn’t. they want to ban them because they don’t want conservatives having the power to oppose them. A liberal professor is especially aware of this. it’s a power grab, not a gun grab.
I think if you banned them....and a shooting happened six months later with the same type of results of a dozen school-kids dead....folks would feel better. That really demonstrates the nature of how far we’ve fallen as a society.
What I find more interesting is that no one admits that this was not the number one massacre of school kids in America. The media would like to avoid mentioning the Bath School killing of 1927.
