You’ll need the police’s guns to take away other people’s guns. So you’re very Pro-Gun, you just believe that only the Government (which is, of course, so reliable, honest, moral and virtuous…) should be allowed to have guns. There is no such thing as gun control. There is only centralizing gun ownership in the hands of a small, political elite and their minions.
John Lott has done the most extensive, thorough, and sophisticated study we have on the effects of loosening gun control laws.

As you may know, I'm a native Texan. In fact I'm a fifth generation Texan.
