Isn't that special?

And yet they claim that removing the guns from rednecks in Podunk, Utah will result in less homicide.

What a crock.
Meanwhile,
"In Baltimore, violent crime rates were going down until 2015, when police officers “pulled back from a more proactive approach” following widespread city riots after the death of Freddie Gray, a 25-year-old black man who suffered a severe spinal injury while being transported in a police van on April 1, 2015, and died one week later.

"Gray had a long criminal record and was arrested for possession of an illegal knife after running from a bike patrol officer who made eye contact with him. State Attorney Marilyn Mosby filed charges against the six officers involved. Each officer was either acquitted or had charges dropped.

"Violence in Baltimore has stayed historically high following the riots, with arrests plummeting, shootings soaring, and the police force itself getting smaller."

There's a lot of ways people can be free that that don't recognize. There's a lot of freedom that people aren't using. You're free to move or react or whatever.
Too bad, many people are to dumb to notice all the freedom available to them, and a lot more are too afraid to or confused about how to use it. ( I fall into the second category).
