Guns and Gun Violence
A report obtained by the Washington Post shows that data from the BATF — the first time any such data has been released to the public — shows that:
- states with lax gun laws have the most gun crime, and
- guns from states with lax gun laws are responsible for most gun crimes in other states.
This data validates arguments for sensible gun control — waiting periods, restriction of sales at gun shows, buyer registrations, background checks, etc.
Read for yourself and see.
