Voice of Reason
From KABA comes this column by Jon Caldara, president of the Independence Institute in Golden, Colorado. A very well-written, clearly-stated case for allowing the Assault Weapons ban to sunset 14 days from now, as it should.
No scare tactics involved, just the simple facts. No fear-mongering or cries of the impending apocalype. No childish mud slinging...well, except for the closer.
Good stuff.
The so-called assault-weapons ban is about to sunset. About time.
It was one of the goofiest gun laws on the books. It outlawed guns because they look mean — the perfect law for a superficial world.
The assault-weapons ban was racial profiling for guns.
No scare tactics involved, just the simple facts. No fear-mongering or cries of the impending apocalype. No childish mud slinging...well, except for the closer.
If you still have to outlaw something that looks nasty, ban Ted Kennedy.
Good stuff.
