Default Higher gun ownership equals higher rate of homicide

With the "general public," I think guns are more and more looked
upon as
- excuse the analogy, but it works - cigarettes.
They are found to be increasingly unacceptable.
Like cigarettes, guns won't go away, but will be more highly taxed,
regulated, and suppressed.
And it will make a difference in innocent deaths.
But the NRA will do all they can to keep that from happening.



I hear Starbucks suggested that patrons leave their guns outside.
Waiting for NRA reaction.
Probably have gun nuts boycott Starbucks, just like Jesse Jackson or
Al
Sharpton would do for their "causes."
Maybe write nasty letters to Starbucks too.
Maybe even hold a shoot-in.
Anyway, I'm feeling a little bit psychic. Just a little.

For those who conceal carry, it's safer for everyone concerned to keep
it on your person.
Leaving it "outside" (i.e. in the car) makes it more susceptible to
being stolen by someone who shouldn't have it.
