Think about what difference it's made in cities such as DC, LA, Baltimore, the entire state of California, New Jersey, . . . . I'd rather be in philly than LA.
The mayoral gun control mantra is an excuse and a diversionary tactic.
There's now evidence to show that harsh gun laws applied to law abiding citizens actually result in increased crime. That's one reason why the majority of states have relaxed gun laws and restrictions on concealed carry permits.
While many want to believe that gun control is some magic wand that will keep guns out of the hands of criminals, it doesn't work. The illegal guns will continue to flow in from overseas just like illegal drugs, but everyone who obeys the law will be defenseless.
