In the wake of the senseless tragedy in Connecticut many are calling for more gun control, claiming the goal is to make people safe. This argument is false.
Virtually every mass shooting happens in a 'gun free zone.' Look at Chicago. Mexico. Gun bans and other gun control measures have zero impact on criminals and on sick people intent on harming innocents.
Some examples from Europe:
- Sept 27, 2001 - SWITZERLAND
- March 27, 2002 - FRANCE
- April 26, 2002 - GERMANY
- Nov 7, 2007 - FINLAND
- Sept 23, 2008 - FINLAND
- March 11, 2009 - GERMANY
- June 2, 2010 - ENGLAND
- April 9, 2011 - THE NETHERLANDS
- July 22, 2011- NORWAY
- Dec 13, 2011 - BELGIUM
If you truly want to protect people, begin by protecting peoples' God-given right to protect themselves.
No more gun control laws!
