There is absolutely NO >evidence to even suggest a connection between gun ownership and crime. Bullshit. The more guns there are, the more likely they will be used in a crime. If there were *no* controls on handguns - then they would be everywhere - making it easier for criminals to get one (at any time) and also making it more likely they would be used in a fit of passion. (This is pretty much where the USA is today.) Would the NRA think it would be OK for 7-11 to hand out a free plastic 22 cal handgun to anyone who buys a Big-Gulp? Clearly you have to draw the line somewhere. This is where people disagree. I believe in our right to own firearms - but the NRA`s myopic knee-jerk reaction to oppose *any* controls is getting a lot of people killed. John Abt
