Right to Keep and Bear Arms

Comparison of murder rates between Houston, with no gun control, and Chicago, with a virtual gun ban. Chicago's murder rate is way higher.

Headlines keep saying the Senate vote on gun control will be close. I don't know if this wishful thinking or if Republicans have already caved and they're just figuring out who will take the hit. I'm afraid it's the latter.

Senate gun control bill worse than advertised. Duh. Reason claims senators are abandoning the bill.
"Democratic Senators from states where people actually care about their self-defense rights appear to be abandoning ship as they realize they're putting their political careers at risk in order to win nothing more than a political fig leaf for the president. And Republicans who might safely vote to gut the Second Amendment face enormous push-back from their pro-gun colleagues. "
Thank goodness.

New York using health care bureaucracy to search records without warrants to find people to seize guns from.
