Gun control - an excellent editorial

| No Comments
From Larry Correia -- New York Times bestselling author of the Monster Hunter International series, the Grimnoir Chronicles, and the thriller Dead Six.
An opinion on gun control
I didn�t want to post about this, because frankly, it is exhausting. I�ve been having this exact same argument for my entire adult life. It is not an exaggeration when I say that I know pretty much exactly every single thing an anti-gun person can say. I�ve heard it over and over, the same old tired stuff, trotted out every single time there is a tragedy on the news that can be milked. Yet, I got sucked in, and I�ve spent the last few days arguing with people who either mean well but are uninformed about gun laws and how guns actually work (who I don�t mind at all), or the willfully ignorant (who I do mind), or the obnoxiously stupid who are completely incapable of any critical thinking deeper than a Facebook meme (them, I can�t stand).

Today�s blog post is going to be aimed at the first group. I am going to try to go through everything I�ve heard over the last few days, and try to break it down from my perspective. My goal tonight is to write something that my regular readers will be able to share with their friends who may not be as familiar with how mass shootings or gun control laws work.
An excellent post -- worth your time to read if you are unsure about what the mainstream media is feeding you regarding guns and the progressive/utopian anti-gun agenda. Be sure to check out his novels -- fun reading!
