What's this "rising tide" stuff? One thing I noticed about the last few Presidential elections is that gun crime NEVER came up. This article is a nice attempt to stir the pot, but these people expose themselves as liars when they pluck this stuff out of the air as a way to push their agenda.

You'd think they'd be happy that crime in this country has been going down for the most part for the past few decades. Of course the kinds of crime that could be prevented by handguns--rapes, for example--don't seem to concern them much.

To me, a "gun crime" is using the wrong kind of bore brush and scratching up the barrel.

Ummmnnnhhh...Milwaukee's had a few shootings (12 in 12 hours last weekend)--but no "rising tide" noises.

Most folks have figured out that the Bad Guys have the guns and there's not a helluvalot they can do about that.
