That's not gun crimes, that's violence that they mentioned in the video.  Being that there are naturally going to be fewer guns available it seems interesting that violence would spike like that.

It isn't gun crimes (like possession), they mentioned violence.
I would expect them to follow the same thread, based on my logic.

Except...in all of those cases concealed carry or open carry wouldn't have mattered.  In fact, open carry would probably have prevented it in the first place.

CrAz3D

I like open carry more, too.



Being that he didn't really talk about the exact specifics of each case it's amusing that you can jump to a conclusion without knowing the facts.

All his arguments seem to be about why the prison system sucks, coupled with him clearly being a violent person.

Well, it doesn't matter, because by the sound of it, in each case, they never got wrist control, which is step 1 in self defense

And how we have the right to protect ourselves.
He SAID that, but none of his arguments led to that. They all said, "the prison system doesn't works, so we should kill criminals ourselves". That's it.

There's a difference between saying something and proving/defending something. One is rhetoric, and the other is argument.

Bill Richardson voted against the original assault weapon ban ;)!

At that time he was the Rep. of the the most liberal House district in our state.  Really, Richardson is one Democrat I would DEFINITELY vote for over McCain ... too bad he didn't keep going :(.

Well the right to bear arms doesn't mean criminals should shoot people, guns don't kill people, people kill people. Nobody should need to carry anything more than a stun gun for protection, and a rifle to hunt.

CrAz3D

Ideally you don't need anything for protection ... but if I ever need something for protection I definitely want something more than a stun gun
