Alabama has received an F for its gun laws and is the fifth worst state in the nation for deaths from gun violence, according to a new national study.
The grading came from the Annual Gun Law Scorecard from the Giffords Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence, out this week. The ranking is tabulated comparing gun legislation in all 50 states, assigning point values to laws and policies based on their strengths or weaknesses. The center is a public interest organization based in San Francisco, founded in 1993. |

I'm an Alabamian, and I say we have pretty good gun laws. Many murders are drug related and yes we DO have a problem with those. More serious gun laws WILL NOT REDUCE THOSE TRAGEDIES. |

It's a study from San Francisco. No wonder. Libtard answer to crime: ban guns so honest people cannot defend themselves from people armed with illegal guns - - - - - - or knives. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
