40 REASONS TO SUPPORT GUN CONTROL - 3
31.Charlton Heston, a movie actor as president of the NRA is a cheap
lunatic who should be ignored, but Michael Douglas, a movie actor
as a representative of Handgun Control, Inc. is an ambassador for
peace who is entitled to an audience at the UN arms control summit.
32.Police operate with backup within groups, which is why they need
larger capacity pistol magazines than do "civilians" who must face
criminals alone and therefore need less ammunition.
33.We should ban "Saturday Night Specials" and other inexpensive guns
because it's not fair that poor people have access to guns too.
34.Police officers have some special Jedi-like mastery over handguns
that private citizens can never hope to obtain.
35.Private citizens don't need a gun for self-protection because the
police are there to protect them even though the Supreme Court says
the police are not responsible for their protection.
36.Citizens don't need to carry a gun for personal protection but
police chiefs, who are desk-bound administrators who work in a
building filled with cops, need a gun.
37."Assault weapons" have no purpose other than to kill large numbers
of people. The police need assault weapons. You do not.
38.When Microsoft pressures its distributors to give Microsoft
preferential promotion, that's bad; but when the Federal government
pressures cities to buy guns only from Smith & Wesson, that's good.
39.Trigger locks do not interfere with the ability to use a gun for
defensive purposes, which is why you see police officers with one
on their duty weapon.
40.Handgun Control, Inc., says they want to "keep guns out of the wrong hands" (sorry - didn't get the rest - be creative - finish it yourself)
