Washington Times Editorial Offers Pro-Gun Take

Why is there all this focus from the media about “getting guns off the street?” Apparently few in the mainstream media bother to point out that less guns doesn’t always mean less crime, but an op-ed piece for The Washington Times sets the record straight and we were happy to see these words:
“This correlation between the D.C. gun ban and diminished safety was not a coincidence. Look at the Windy City. Immediately after Chicago banned handguns in 1982, the murder rate, which had been falling almost continually for a decade, started to rise.”
It is just a shame that it took an editorial to actually do research on this subject!
