In recent weeks, mass shootings and related arrests across the U.S. have made a comeback.
Maybe it’s a very sick sign that our COVID recovery is underway. The carnage begs the usual question: “Does this mean there is a need for gun control?”
Pro-gun activists say the “rare” mentally ill are to blame for the shootings. Opponents say the shootings reveal toxic behavior unrelated to mental illness and are demanding full gun control reform. |

Well, BJ (may I call you BJ? Thank you.), try stopping a thug from killing you with just your brain.

TO REMEMBER |
| Are we at last brought to such humiliating and debasing degradation, that we cannot be trusted with arms for our defense? Where is the difference between having our arms in possession and under our direction, and having them under the management of Congress? If our defense be the real object of having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety, or equal safety to us, as in our own hands? — Patrick Henry, 3 J. Elliot, Debates in the Several State Conventions 45, 2d ed. Philadelphia, 1836 |
