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. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
