Of course you knew I was going to say that.<br /><br />I like how you posted this map which is supposed to be a proclamation for how well gun control works, and you immediately start making excuses for why gun control doesn't work.

Maybe they should try implementing Virginia's gun laws.

You could admit that as long as millions of gun owners are free to exercise their god-given right to NOT safely store their guns at home we will continue to allow guns to flow from those lawful owners into the criminal world. You could admit that strict gun laws concerning background checks are not nearly as effective as they should be as long as you guys can go on the internet or to the local gun show and buy whatever you want without a background check.<br /><br />So, I suppose for simplicity's sake, you could say it like you did, gun laws have no correlation.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09806175370305006933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-85049883119548528342014-09-22T15:10:22.321+02:002014-09-22T15:10:22.321+02:00Bingo.
