Is Gun Control the Answer? (ABC News Video)

Pretty good,

Indeed the Brady bunch says that their laws have stopped thousands of criminals from getting guns, but as he said, that only means they were stopped from getting guns from an FFL, They are still going to get guns for crime through other channels, thus, gun controls such as these don't really work.
 
wow

I liked this guy. He didn't say he had all the answers but was kind of playing devils advocate. Alot of the way I feel about stuff. The only thing about "gun control" I never understood was how it stopped sriminals from getting firearms. I grew up in a rough neiborhood alot of ppl had a shotgun by there door but I know also that there are plenty of illeagle firearms in my neiborhood too. The ones that get passed around from one person to another to commit crimes, I always wonderd how "gun control" stopped that.
 
That's a better thing for us, if people who aren't big gun enthusiasts and NRA members tell the liberals that they're wrong.
 
I agree with the guy in the interview... Not all problems have easy solutions to solve them. Sometimes the question needs to be asked about the cost of solving the problem.
 
Gun control is not the answer. Gun control defies our 2nd amendment right to keep and bear arms. The answer is term limits for Senators and Representatives. Get rid of congressmen who are soft on criminals. Such congressman are not serving the people. They are serving themselves and private interest groups like organized crime families. No congressman should receive congressional salary for life after serving in US congress.
 
I actually think that Congress should only get paid when they are NOT in Washington. Every day that they are in Washington, their "daily" rate is $0.00... I think that would solve a lot of the busy work and stupid laws and debates they have.
 
I thought his response was well thought out and reasonable. And obviously not what the interviewer was looking for. I love how she tried to refute his argument with a Brady Campaign talking point but gave no quote or statement from a pro second ammendment group.
 
Even if we could say Poof all gone are gone.. people will just stab people... remove all knives etc... people that want to kill will With what ever they can get.. bats ... cars bombs you cannot stop it.. So let us protect ourselves from the killers at least... Good Interview
 
NY gunner killed 13... ok had he had a bomb he would have killed them all... There is always something better than a gun the cycle will not stop. An armed person probably could have saved a life,,
 
gun control

The only thing that NEVER comes out in any of these interviews is: that had somebody had a gun at the scene, at the time, that many lives could have been saved. The professor should have said it. Of course, the frustrated poor little "info babe" could not or would not ever think to mention it..! Good to see her all flustered and speakless, because the "good professor" didn't offer up that the answer to these mass shootings was more gun control. The professor very astutely answered her query on the idiotic and deceitful statement by the "Brady Bunch"..!!
