D.C.’s gun lessons
D.C.’s gun lessons
TODAY’S EDITORIAL
November 18, 2006
The incoming Democratic powers-that-be in the congressional
leadership and on the Senate and House Judiciary Committees
are a who’s who of the gun-control movement: Nancy Pelosi,
Hillary Clinton, Patrick Leahy, John Conyers, Dick Durbin,
Joseph Biden, Ted Kennedy, Harry Reid and Herb Kohl, to name
a few. If and when gun control roars back to life in
2007-08 — we expect that it will — the data unearthed this
week in these lawmakers’ own backyards by reporter Matthew
Cella should loom large.
The District of Columbia’s gun-murder numbers show yet again
that stringent gun-control laws have little or no utility in
curbing the violence, even as they strip citizens of their
Second Amendment rights.
For all of story:
