Sic Semper Tyrannis!
Pro-gun advocates have been telling us that gun laws dont prevent crime.
My hometown, Baltimore, has a population of 637,000. Last year, homicides were down to a 20-year low, at 234 killings.
My temporary hometown, London, is the largest city in Europe, at 7.5 million. Gun killings in 2008: seventeen.
London has one tenth the shootings, with ten times the population. A citizen of Baltimore is a hundred times more likely to be shot to death, than a Londoner.
Gun laws work.
Here's something that may have passed your notice, Hon. Britain is an Island, Maryland isn't.
You can more effectively ban something when you have shores to protect then in numerous land routes to the same place for criminals to run guns to.
