Handguns and America…
Originally published in the Grand Rapids Press, December 18, 2010
The Press ran a series of stories last week on handguns and how lost or stolen handguns have been used in several local violent crimes. It really was extraordinary journalism because the articles didn’t take sides — there was no “let’s hear from pro-gun and anti-gun lobbyist positions.” The articles simply illustrated the sometimes overlooked consequences of legally owned guns and left it to the readers to draw their own conclusions. I tried to do the same.
