Randy Cassingham of "This Is True" has a blog, where he posts comments, long essays, and so on related to his "This Is True" feature. I thought this weeks' was especially interesting, since he elaborates on the gun-control issue.
He gives a good (if brief) history of guns in the United States, explains WHY we think the way we do about guns, and what the Constitutionalists (and the Supreme Court) have ruled regarding the Second Amendment to the Constitution. He also gives a few thoughts on "guns in church" and WHY the NRA won't accept gun restrictions. He uses the smoking bans as an excellent parallel to the "slippery slope" of gun-control.
Check it out; it's definitely worth the read.
