Nobody can look at the number of gun-related tragedies in American in recent years without seriously questioning our laws and our attitudes regarding guns. Too many on the left see government-based proposals as the only solution, and too many on the right reject those proposals without recognizing the problem or offering solutions of their own. In the case of gun violence they are both right and they are both wrong.
I am a strong supporter of gun rights and oppose strict gun control measures, but you don’t have to be for more gun control to be against gun violence. The truth is that government shouldn’t have to take your guns away, because the very real evidence of the dangers of gun ownership should be enough for you to do the smart thing and rid your homes of guns.
