Duh. When you force law-abiding citizens to live without being able to protect themselves, the criminals, who don't care one whit about the law to begin with, will prey on everyone else.

It's that simple. Nice to finally see a few Donks wake up and smell the coffee.

But Barry’s bill is a first step and it is co-sponsored by Council members Jim Graham, D-Ward 1, Kwame Brown, D-at large, and Tommy Wells, D-Ward 6 — none of whom are gun-toting NRAers. However, all four councilmen face the same intractable problem in their own neighborhoods: The city’s gun control laws don’t work as advocates promised they would...

I am amazed that after years and years of evidence showing that less guns in private citizen's hands equals more crime, that people would still be so deluded, so retarded, and so moronic to think that if they just outlaw guns, then gun crime will go away like Pure Fucking Magic.

Gun control doesn't work.
