If you lived in NYC during the Dinkins administration - THAT WAS THE CASE! More people were dying from gun shot wounds than automobiles. I believe that is what Rudy is talking about. People could not walk the streets without fear of being shot at or mugged during the Dinkins administration. Don't compare the rest of the country with NYC during that time. NYC was a crime ridden hell hole and you were afraid to walk at night. Understood. But it would be a mistake to support a presidential candidate who wants to treat every gun owner as a likely criminal. Nationally speaking, cars kill nearly twice as many people as guns. And cars aren't a Constitutionally protected right. :-)

Well lets see what he says on the issue first before we denounce him as some kind of lunatic gun grabber (just a quote I've heard from some freeper not you!). I don't think he or any other candidate will touch the issue.
