I talked with a guy at the handgun counter at Gander Mountain yesterday.

He said that they were almost sold out of handguns after the Supreme Court ruling, "We need another truckload! It's mostly women buying them."

I said this was funny since the law changed absolutely nothing in Tennessee. I told him it probably meant more dead husbands. A handgun in your house statistically does not make you safer and does make it more than 20 times more likely for a family member to get shot.

More than half of all gun fatalities are suicides.

Where do the kids who take a handgun to school get them? Most are stolen from their parents.
