I hit it
Buzz Poll: Gun laws Should Connecticut's legislature pass stronger gun laws? Yes. Tough as Connecticut's gun laws are, they're still inadequate. The state's ban on assault weapons, for example, doesn't appear to have covered the .223 caliber rifle used in Friday's assault. (102 responses) 25% No. Gun laws don't stop would-be murderers. An armed teacher or security officer, however, could have stopped the Newtown murderer. (210 responses) 52% This was a unique set of circumstances in which none of these suggestions would have worked. We shouldn't curtail our liberties because of an event, even if horrific, that won't happen again. (94 responses) 23% |
