By doing what, stripping people of their right to protect themselves by carrying a gun?
Everyone knows you can't keep criminals from carrying a gun. To think otherwise is lunacy.
We have a high murder rate here in JAX but I depend on the .45 I carry rather than the cops 10 minutes away.
You haven't lived in NYC during Dinkins time before Rudy came into office. If you did you would understand what Rudy had to do to clean up the city. New York City is 10 times bigger than your small city. Don't even compare the two.
of course you can keep criminals from carrying a gun.
how did the murder level in NYC go from 2200+ to 700? did they arm 7 million honest people to shoot it out with the bad guys?
