[Vision2020] The N.R.A. at the Bench

[Gary Crabtree]

"Since the assault weapons ban has been lifted, there have been more
violent crimes."


I can't speak to "violent crimes" over all as I don't know how it's defined
but gun violence is down. The assault weapons ban had zero effect on gun
crime.

"I don’t wish to take away all guns. And I don’t imagine the benefits, they
are real."

Since you are willing to take away many thousands of guns to solve a
problem that reflects less than two percent of gun violence, how many guns
would you be willing to ban to prevent over sixty two percent? Suicide by
firearm only requires but a single shot. Why would any sane American
believe that once one class of firearm was made illegal that others
wouldn't soon follow? People such as yourself will always have a
rationalization for taking away the rights of others
