The fact that so many people discuss and debate how a gun ban can lead to more crime itself reflects how much the debate has been changing.
That their Chronicle and Examiner could see the light is no mean feat.
Both the NRA and the Second Amendment Foundation have announced they will challenge Prop. H in court. Watch these two papers do an about face and go after these groups with all the fury they can muster. And once the courts toss it out, they will drag out the tired old "Dodge City" and "bloodbath in the streets" canards yet again.
Their opposition to H is pure BS, a phony sop to conservatives using a dead letter doomed to being thrown out by the courts to try and eliminate the bias charge, and keep from looking like flip-flopping idiots when they go after the NRA and the SAF for "overturning the will of the people." They also see it as a means to demagogue the issue and get the state law changed so that a future Prop. H will stand as the law.
