I wrote a series of posts related the the current gun control debates across the country. I provided my thoughts about the Parkland Shooting in the introduction. Then in an attempt to educate, I provided a list of “Myths”. In these “Myths”, I take common arguments which I hear, and debunk them. My intention in doing this is to eliminate loser arguments so we can focus on topics where meaningful reform can be discussed and perhaps changes can be made. In the final post, I highlight areas that I feel represent potential “common sense” reforms that can get support from all sides.
The following are links to the posts so they can be easily read in order.
