Whenever a horrible gun crime occurs, the left and its allies in the mainstream media start exploring whether or not tighter gun control laws would have prevented such a crime.
Personally I try to avoid the knee-jerk response from guns rights advocates about banning knives, blunt instruments, automobiles, etc. —anything that can kill.
Still, I can’t help but note today’s Sunday N&R front page. Above the fold, Travis Fain wonders why we don’t track guns like we track cold medicine.*
Below the fold, Susan Ladd probes the request for clemency from Janet Danahey, who killed four people with a can of lighter fluid.
*Good question — I don’t think we should be tracking cold medicine, either.
