    Interesting report I found on reddit

    Fair warning, it's long.



    Seems to be a fellow that did a report on guns. Interesting analysis. Somewhat balanced too.

    Not a bad read. Even though the author could not entirely prevent his anti-gun bias from coming through, he tried, and largely succeeded.

    His proposal is compromise, and if I've read the article correctly, he says the pro-2A side gets shall-issue OC & CC with national reciprocity, and the anti-2A side gets universal background checks and mandatory reporting of stolen firearms.

      Good read. Also of note is as the writer became more informed he became less anti-gun
      Only slaves don't need guns

      We already have the only reasonable Gun Control we need, It's called the Second Amendment and it's the government it controls.

        I agree with both of you. I did like the evolution of his thinking on the subject. It shows that education goes a long way.

          National Reciprocity can win in DC..Congressman John Hostettler & Senator Bob Smith have been working on this. It may be possible next year.. or maybe after 2016 .. A prayer is in order

            I say dont give them an inch the anti gun agenda is death by a thousand cuts. Thats just the beginging and it does nothing to curb the violance or criminals. If he realy did his homework he would find that gunlaws dont work unless they are progun lol He should have concluded that gunsafe zones are the danger zones or more better put the playground for criminals and pshypopaths druged up on antidepresants. He should have also concluded that antidepresants are more of a problem and the gun is just a tool. At least he changes a bit lol

              And then it goes to BHO for his "quick as lightning" veto.
              Things usually turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out.
