Gun-Free-School-Fraud Costs Lives Again

Virginia Is Latest State to Suffer

By Alan Korwin

Another armed murderer has used the so-called Gun-Free-School-Zones law to simply walk onto school grounds and with impunity begin killing innocent children.

These dangerous criminals rely on the fact that no one on campus will be able to offer resistance. Congress passed the law in 1990 and renewed it in 1995 after the famous "Lopez" case declared it unconstitutional. Though it cannot stop murderers it has enabled many, experts say. States and schools themselves have copied the law locally for a false sense of security with disastrous effect.

"The Gun-Free-School law is a cruel hoax that costs lives," said Alan Korwin, author of Gun Laws of America. "Time and time again, psychotic killers are using the law to provide a safe haven, where they are the only people with guns." It's no surprise these madmen never attack gun stores, police stations, military facilities or other places where people are known to be armed, he says, and news reports tend to overlook this point.

Quiet No Longer

By Gerard Valentino

Over the last 12 years gun-control was the equivalent of a political black hole with Congress firmly in the grasp of the GOP. Now, as Democrats control our nation’s legislative bodies, the quiet enjoyed by pro-gun activists on the gun-control front will surely come to an end.

Although not heavily covered by the establishment media, Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), and her cohorts in the anti-gun movement have already renewed their drive to protect criminals by disarming law-abiding Americans.

Everywhere, pro-gun groups are prepping their members for what is sure to become an issue in the 2008 presidential election. The fight could last much longer if a Democrat like John Edwards, Hillary Clinton (D-NY), or even some of the Republican front runners wins the presidency.

Gun owners everywhere remember the dark days of the early Clinton administration. During that time anyone with a gun in their nightstand drawer was portrayed by Democrats, and the anti-gun movement, as a redneck militia member intent on arming society as a whole. The establishment media was more than happy to further that portrayal by covering every story that tied guns to crime. While ignoring the overwhelming number of times guns were used to deter crime.

Even the lack of shootings predicted by the leadership of the anti-gun movement, after legal concealed carry swept the country , did little to persuade the establishment media that law-abiding gun owners were not little more than sociopath spree killers in waiting.

Cleveland homicides - criminals killing criminals

By Alex Payton

A recent article in the Cleveland Plain Dealer is reporting that most homicide victims in Cleveland are criminals.

From the article:

    Most of the victims of homicide in Cleveland look a lot like their killers.

    They are criminals being killed by other criminals. The incidents almost always involve black men killing a man of the same race.

    The deadliest areas are those stricken with poverty and fatherless households. Homicides here are about three times the national average.

This is something that gun owners, and other people with common sense, have been saying for years. The private ownership of firearms does not cause crime, and it is definitely not the reason for the high homicide rate in some cities. The true cause is drugs, poverty, and gangs.
