("Smart Guns Save Lives, So Where Are They?")
While
I applaud Mr. Kristof on the sentiment expressed, history teaches us
that the NRA is immune to emotional appeals. In the immediate aftermath
of Newtown, and the deaths of twenty young children, surely we believed
that change would have to follow. There is scant evidence to suggest
that anything is different.
The NRA will blame negligent
parents, random bad luck, or figures that support
the premise that more children die from a range of other causes not
aggressively attacked by the left wing. The NRA will be portrayed by its
advocates, as always, as unwarranted scapegoat for the failure of
others.
The sad truth is that unless the bottom line is
improved for their clients, the gun lobbyists will find no predicate to
support legislation that will save lives. Death is no match for
financial gain.
