Philadelphia's Solution to the Recent High Levels of Violence: Restrict Legal Owners of Guns
I would propose the following: more legal and responsible owners of guns would reduce the levels of violence in Philadelphia. Bad people will get guns. Maybe they'll steal them from legal owners. Maybe they'll buy them on the black market. But they will get them. And I would rather have a bad guy wondering if I'm packing rather than assuming I don't.
I heard Mayor Street said that Philadelphia has no hunters so their are no need for guns. I can think of a valid reason. To kill or thwart bad guys who may try to kill you. Unless Mayor Street will assign a cop to escort me.

Hey, I'm no fan of the NRA, but I think we can all realize that this wave of violence would not have been effected by stricter gun laws. It would have happened regardless. It's not like it was a rash of shooting by kids who found their parents guns or something. I doubt any of the shooters were legally carrying weapons...Chris J.
