The good guys with guns
IN THE aftermath of the tragic massacre of 20 students and six adults in Newtown, CT, calls for increased gun control are mounting. Citing concerns about “assault weapons,” President Obama claimed that a “weapon of war” has no place in the hands of an average American citizen. Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) aims to ban many firearms in an upcoming bill that expands on the 1994-2004 Assault Weapons Bill (AWB). However, these arguments and positions hold little merit and in fact represent violations of the intent of the Founding fathers.
