“Failing to see that armed citizens in Israel, is what keeps their murder rate down, not the opposite conclusion he came to.”

Israel’s low murder rate is not attributable to the fact that that Israelis are more likely to be armed.

My conclusion that I intended to establish was that not enough law biding American’s are armed. I misstated my case.

I am one of those unarmed citizens. Not by choice. I live in Illinois, where concealed carry by ordinary citizens is a felony.

What do you attribute it to? I think Houston's problem is a huge influx of poverty stricken illegal aliens and Katrina efuguees.
