When a study in the Journal of the American Medical Association tells us half of Chicagoans will witness a shooting by age 40, is it fair to suspect some gun advocates think that half is not enough?
Is it fair to guess they think that, as more people witness shootings, they will be more likely to buy guns for their protection — furthering the gun lobby’s goal of putting more guns in the hands of more Americans and turning the nation into an armed camp?
