We Must Be Protected

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.
