Default ABC News, Stricter Gun Control Laws Wouldn't Have Prevented Va. Tech Tragedy

Just when I was about to give up every single bit of my faith in the news, someone showed me this article. On a faith scale from 1 - 100 I now have 2 out of 100 faith in the news now. They still don't go out of their way to expose things like this, but rather things like the fact britney spears is growing a mawhawk.

http://abcnews.go.com/2020/Story?id=3083618&page=1

Bottom line is great. Gun control isn't crime control.

John Stossel is a standup guy, and the article doesn't surprise me coming from him.
Unfortunately I am sure that antis hate John Stossel and right him off as the token conservative, which of course is what he is.

Damn right! We need this guy to write or choose what stories get on air. Then, with how much people are influenced by the news and such now, if they hear the correct argument maybe they'd realize how ineffective gun control is and elect the right officals. We need people in there that realize how effective guns are and how to utilize smart, legal gun owners to help prevent crime. This article really shines and will hopefully open some peoples eyes. Great article!
