April 29, 2008 | 1 Comment
According to an AP story in the Denver Post, 13 were killed and 9 wounded in a Tijuana running gun fight over the weekend. How can that be? Mexico has gun laws of which American liberals only dream. South of the border, Mexicans enjoy gun registration, restrictive licensing, restrictions on permissible calibers [...]

April 28, 2008 | Leave a Comment

An AP print story in The Rocky Mountain News on page 31, April 23rd, 2008, “Chaos among gangs,” refers to 9 deaths in 36 shootings over the past weekend in Chicago.

The hard left, which I believe to be in firm control of the public educational [...]
