Quote of the Day

I meant to post this yesterday, but I didn't have the time.

"If someone gets into your house, which would you rather have, a handgun or a telephone? You can call the police if you want, and they'll get there, and they'll take a picture of your dead body. But they can't get there in time to save your life. The first line of defense is you."

-Tom Pamer, from The Cato Institute, as quoted by John Stossel.  Stossel explains clearly that gun control is not crime control.
