For my part, I note that the Rightful Caliph of our community pointed out that American non-gun homicides are almost as high as total homicides in Western European countries, before you even add in the gun crime.

We have a lot of work to do in this country.  I have some ideas, which some of you know if you’ve been reading this blog.

Guns laws themselves often seem relatively uncorrelated with crime.

And, over time, I’ve been shifting in favor of the second amendment, whereas in the past I wasn’t so sure about it.
