Professor Walher E. Williams asks an intelligent
question: "The people who murdered Sgt. Stephen Liczbinski were violent
convicts released on parole. So what is responsible for his death: guns, or a
criminal justice system that cuts soft deals for such criminals?"
Unfortunately, this is not a question people who "hate guns" will
ever ponder. They think if they can "get guns out of existence (a
"fantasy dream")," violence will disappear. It won't. It existed long
before guns were invented, and people would STILL find ways to kill each other
if guns simply "disappeared" (which isn't going to happen, and is a
little like trying to get the toothpaste back in the tube). I have another
question I always ask "anti-gun nuts," but which they never seem to
be able to answer. They just start "calling me names" without
attempting to answer it. It is, "Why would a CRIMINAL, whose entire life
is dedicated to breaking the law, OBEY a law that says he can't be armed while
committing other crimes?" I asked that question a few years ago of Andrew
Hudson, Denver Mayor Wellington Webb's "press flack," and instead of even
attempting to answer it, he accused me of "sending spam." Apparently,
he can't tell the difference between spam and a personal e-mail. Another
irrational thing "anti-gun nuts" do is create
"no-gun-zones," such as Virginia Tech (where a crazy man killed 23
people with a gun that was "illegal" on campus) and other schools
such as Columbine, where an armed man killed 13 people. Then there's the
restaurant in Texas where a woman who had a license to carry had to disarm
herself before entering (because of a "ban" on guns in the restaurant), and had to watch while a crazy gunman killed a bunch of
people, including her parents, who were eating with her. What kind of stupid
people ARE these "anti-gun zealots?" Guns are not what should be
banned. Judges who "slap violent criminals on the hand" and those "anti-gun zealots" are what should
be banned. (Walter E. Williams)
