"The assault weapons ban is . . . symbolic," wrote the columnist Charles Krauthammer, a defender of a total gun ban. "Its only real justification is not to reduce crime but to desensitize the public to the regulation of weapons in preparation for their ultimate confiscation. . . . Deescalation begins with a change in mentality. . . . The real steps, like the banning of handguns, will never occur unless this one is taken first."

Perhaps this is the policy that he thinks she should be "schooled in".

Do you have a link for that quote? Is he advocating for a gun ban or analyzing the situation?
