Reynolds has it right again...
BUT I THOUGHT THE COMMUNITY DEMANDED IT: D.C. Gun Crackdown Meets Community Resistance. I guess the D.C. government fears it will lose in Heller and wants one last power-trip before it's too late. But if the gun-control had worked, why would they need to be confiscating them now?
Plus, more resistance from "the community" in Boston. When you can't even sell gun control in big urban areas like these, I think it means sentiments have shifted.
Gun control is one of those "less is more" issues that myopic liberals just cannot get their arms (pun intended) around. When the majority of shootings take place in supposed "gun-free zones", they think that if only the zone had been bigger, it never would have happened - just oodles of wishful thinking piled upon naiveté.

Don't tell anyone...they really do not want to know this...
DAVE KOPEL AND HOWARD NEMEROV: Is There a Relationship between Guns and Freedom? Comparative Results from 59 Nations. "The data show that (although exceptions can be found) the nations with the highest rates of gun ownership tend to have greater political and civil freedom, greater economic freedom and prosperity, and much less corruption than other nations."

You don’t need to defend yourself when you’re here, because we’ll protect you
Nearly all of the mass shootings of late have been in "gun-free zones." And the ones that weren't -- at the New Life Church in Colorado and the Appalachian School of Law in Virginia -- were stopped by private citizens (and members of the community being attacked) with their own weapons.
Now for my second thought. If these places aren't going to get rid of their "gun-free zone" status, despite the overwhelming circumstantial evidence that they simply get more people killed, then how can they improve their security where it actually make the people inside safer?
I have a few ideas. And for the sake of simplicity, I'm going to apply them to a college.
Meanwhile, Nathan Moore is offering to represent anyone who wants to challenge Tennessee's rules against carry on campus.
