RE: Should the United States Ban Guns?
According to the FBI's website, states and cities in the US that have open carry laws have the lowest crime rates in the country. Why would criminals choose to carry out robberies in a place where people can openly carry guns when they could commit crimes in cities that do not permit a citizen to carry a gun. Makes sense, right?
Well if I was a criminal I would think twice - you would just go somewhere where there weren't guns:)
Exactly. this information is available right on the public website for the FBI, yet the MSM reports exactly the opposite information, that open carry laws create more crime and politicians often report the same thing. I get why politicians to so, but the mainstream media should be held accountable to the facts that are easily verifiable.
The mainstream media like to scare people and they are there to sell ads these days not provide journalism sadly.
