Gun Control Means Using Two Hands
The Associated Press is reporting that the town of Geuda Springs, Kansas has passed an ordinance requiring most households to be equipped with guns and ammunition.
Kennesaw, Georgia passed a similar ordinance in 1981. How has Kennesaw fared since? In 1982, the first year the ordinance took effect, crime against persons fell 74%, followed by another 45% drop the next year. Kennesaw, a town of 13,000, has a murder rate of 0.19 per year, an armed robbery rate of 1.69/year, while rapes average 2.00/year.
