When did you ever see any gun control advocate come up with numbers to show that gun control reduces murders? There’s a huge volume of evidence out there. Think of the 50 states, each having all kinds of different gun laws. Think of all the countries around the world with different gun laws.

Rightful Liberty is unobstructed action according to our will, within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add “within the limits of the law,” because law is often but the tyrant’s will, and always so when it violates the right of an individual. —Thomas Jefferson

You are far less likely to be hurt in a neighborhood of gun-owners than in one of disarmed citizens—even if you don't own a gun yourself. —Harry Browne
