writing a 'argument and pursuasion' essay for an english class I'm taking, this is one of (my favorite) references thus far, it's a fantastic read on how the "less guns = less crime" is false. worth a read and cites it's resources thoroughly.

my instructor is going to get a huge kick out of my paper, I can feel it... I plan on posting it up here as well
reading the enemy's websites (bradycenter.org, bradycampaign.org, etc.) is sickening and the 'facts' that are published are complete lies and subversive figures.
I researched many of the sources listed and found very opposite data on the very same sources websites including the bureau of justice website. I re-read the 'assault weapons ban' of 94 and the asinine logic that's in that is so bass ackwards it frightens me as to how people can seriously think like that. 10 round restriction is the most retarded crap one could come up with. And we all know that street thugs use grenade launchers and bayonnets... seriously, remove your grey matter from your brown matter....
according to the brady bunch, assault rifles (including Uzi's, an uzi is a rifle?) are the most desirable 'mass murder' weapons by criminals, yet all statistics show that handguns are used in crime far and away more than any other type of gun. So what gives? Oh, that's right, anti-gunners don't listen to facts.
facts and logic seem to illude the ignoramouses like brady who apparantly lives in a bubble removed from the real world.
OK, rant over (for now...)
