Dodge City. The western towns required all to surrender any weapons before entering town. Those towns were quite safe. But where guns were so plentiful - where the rich could afford and did carry guns - gun death rates in NYC were highest.

MaggieL would insiste that if everyone carried a gun, then no murders would exist. Reality throughout history says quite the opposite. MaggieL rationalizes using the same 'big dic' idea that force is always the best solution. That is her agenda in every discussion. Well, Iraq is now chock full of guns. Clearly death is decreasing - if facts are justiifed by a 'big dic' agenda.

No one is saying guns should be banned. When one posts that, then one is only hyping fear. But the need for guns and the lack of responsiblity advocated by no restrictions has through history only resulted in more violent crimes.

MaggieL insists that crime will decrease with more people carrying guns. That is total nonsense.
