No mention from the MSM that the leftist doing the shooting was already breaking many 'laws' when he started shooting Republican's in yet another 'gun-free' zone. John Lott: Scalise shooting and knee-jerk calls for more gun control - here we go againBy John R. Lott, Published June 14, 2017 Before the facts were even known about Wednesday morning’s 7 AM shooting in Alexandria, Virginia, gun control advocates were already calling for more stringent laws. ■ David Frum, senior editor for the Atlantic, called for background checks, gun licensing and registration, long gun permits, limits on magazine size, and restrictions on open carrying of guns. ■ Windsor Mann, a columnist for USA Today, blamed “easy access to deadly weapons.” ■ Democratic Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe blamed the attack on “too many guns” and immediately called for more gun control. We don’t even know yet whether these laws could conceivably have made any difference in preventing this attack. And Frum is already correcting his posts for misstating Virginia’s gun control laws. www.foxnews.com/opinion/2017/06/14/john-lott-scalise-shooting-and-knee-jerk-calls-for-more-gun-control-here-go-again.html
