This sounds like a good way to win Hispanic votes.

Show that you trust them with responsibility.

The crime rate will plummet after the first miscreant breaks into a house and gets blown to Kingdom Come.

I'd like to see this tried in some inner city black 'hood, but as much as liberals love to do harmful social engineering experiments on millions of unwilling participants, they'll never go along with *this* one.

Will this be: a Biden-endorsed double-barrel sport gun for, “just walk out on the balcony here ... walk out and put that double-barrel shotgun and fire two blasts outside the house,” or will it be a pump for, “two center-mass blasts”? I’ll take the MUCH lighter pump.

An ASU professor cited in this article said..."There is no credible evidence at all that providing a high-crime area with the instruments to facilitate more crime is going to have any net social benefits,"

Wow. Could his ideological bent have been more obvious? He could not have been more transparent if he had said... "I have ignored all There is no credible evidence at all that more guns equals less crime."

That’s why I love living here. The town’s not nearly as liberal as its reputation.

Hurrah! An armed citizen is a responsible one.

My wife and I recently spent 40 days living in Tucson while she was a transplant patient at the University of Arizona Medical Center. Our neighborhood was very safe, had fabulous bus service, and shopping was 10 minutes away, either on foot or by bus.

But the driver of the van service that took us to our twice-weekly appointments at UMC had just been robbed at gunpoint, with two guys breaking into his home and putting guns to him, just after the first of the year.

Some neighborhoods in Tucson could use shotguns to stop the crime. Nothing says stop like a bully with a pistol dribbling his intestines all over the sidewalk after being stopped by a shotgun, free or otherwise.

By the way, the police aren't the only inept law enforcement service in the city. The Pima County sheriff is Clarence Dupnik, who has been heavily criticized for his militarization of the sheriff's department.

They should call this, the Joe Biden plan in action in the real world.

Dr John Lott can run the stats re crime rates before the Joe Biden shotguns and afterwards.

Armed citizens versus the bad guys appears to be working in a south of the border town:

I understand that there is a 19th Century law that entitles a man released from an Arizona territorial prison a horse, saddle and rifle.
