"Big Question: Time To Reinstate The 48-Hour Waiting Period For Guns?



[ ] Reinstate it. A cooling-off period can change one’s mind about committing a violent act.

[ ] Don’t bring it back. Potential victims shouldn’t have to wait for protection.

[ ] Not sure.







A Democratic state lawmaker has proposed reinstating the 48-hour waiting period for handgun purchases.  The move comes after police say a Madison man shot and killed a former co-worker the day after he bought a gun.  Which of the following best describes how you feel about the waiting period?"
... and the results so far:







Don’t bring it back. Potential victims shouldn’t have to wait for protection.

Heard this on the radio:

"Of course people should have to wait, they are GUNS!"

The guest speaker threw out a lot of statistics that were mostly pro gun.  200,000 reported uses of firearms for self defense last year, FBI estimates more that 2 million per year total.  

The waiting period would not have stopped the shooting in question, or the knee jerk reaction by the Douchocratic lawmaker

the first half guest was the anti.

 
Chris Taylor from Madison

Spouted a bunch of "statistics are well documented". She even threw out an 87% stat; but no citations of studies.




Nik Clark handled the rebuttal. His arguments were well-considered, and backed by actual research that he could actually cite by title. In other words, completely lost on the typical Madison lib.




Callers were chiming in with scary stories about being able to buy guns by mail order without a background check, etc.




( I had a long drive into work this morning ).
