Our leaders believe that the real danger we face is terrorism. Who knows how much we have spent on fighting terrorism since 9/11? How many of us have had their freedoms violated in the name of this protection? Has this crusade been a good investment? About 3,000 of our fellow citizens have been killed by terrorists since 2001.
We'd be much, much better off had we spent a very small portion of the terrorist-protection money on gun control. In one year we kill ten times as many people by guns as were killed by terrorists in eleven years.
