See....if you leave law abiding gun owners alone.....because they don't commit the gun violence in the first place....and instead actually focus on the criminals using guns to commit crimes....wow....gosh gee willickers......you can cut down on your murder rate.........
New Orleans has stood at the top of the national murder charts many times in the last two decades, including every year between 2008 and 2012 for cities larger than 250,000. But by 2013, murders had dropped to 155 people, the lowest numbers seen in New Orleans since 1985, and a 20% drop from the year prior.
And to repeat....how did they lower their murder rate.......by actually going after criminals....and not focusing on law abiding gun owners......
This is one of the biggest problems with the anti gun extremist movement....by obsessing on guns.....and then obsessing on law abiding gun owners because they can actually control them with laws.....the anti gun extremists allow the real problem to grow and grow.......and more people die because of it....
If anti gun extremists would go after the prosecutors, judges and then encourage the police to arrest the violent criminals....they would actually lower the murder rate even more....
But of course, they don't care about the murder rate...not really......they just hate the fact that people can legally own and carry guns.......who cares if actual criminals are doing the murdering......as long as one, law abiding, peaceful, non violent citizen has a gun....that they don't use to commit crime.........then the anti gun extremists job is not done......
