I have a feeling this guy and I wouldn't see eye to eye on many things, but he speaks such an obvious truth here that it's worth pointing out
The Violence Policy Center in its report a year ago said that the answer is to get the guns off the streets. And while there are way too many guns on America's streets, the truth is that there are already tough gun laws on the books in most big cities and that hasn't done much to reduce the killings.
Emphasis mine.
If people really cared about saving lives, they'd have to do a lot more than just blame an inanimate object.
