To further back that up--just read an article today by an author --John R Lott, JR. -book was called "FREEDOMNOMICS" --who did a 10 year study on guns and crimes with guns in the U.S... One of the big arguments anti-gunner Sarah Brady had stated was if the "Assault Weapons Ban" would not be renewed, crime along with murders would skyrocket... After it was non-renewed in 2004--the following year--2005--murders in the US decreased nationwide 3%.. wow..guess old Sarah had that one WRONG....
