John Lott is needed to shoot down MD's proposed gun-free zones in 2016

I sent him an e-mail, let's see what he says.

I guess Trone missed his class at Wharton..

And his reply:

Thanks very much, Dan. I am happy to testify, but I don’t do lobbying, so I have to be invited by the lead Republican on the committee. The other issue is that I am in Nashville for a while now, so I would have to travel from here to Annapolis.

Here is a video of my testimony.

So would he mind if you echo his testimony points? It's not like having him here personally would have any gravitas in Annapolis.

And his reply:

Excellent.

Get on the horn with the lead Republican and let's start a fund to pay for his travel expenses.

Sadly, this is probably true. They know the stats. They have an agenda.

The real problem is that the masses, by and large, are idiots - they aren't educated

The problem with the masses isn't that they're not educated, but, instead, that they've learned nothing.

And his reply:

That video, as are all of Lott's many appearances before state hearings, is well worth viewing....twice!
And Lott's correct about the GA being a lost cause. I think he's saying the same thing I've been saying: it's a waste of time trying to knock sense into the GA. Instead, you've gotta vote 'em out. And to do that, you've gotta win the hearts and minds of more voters. And you do that through education and adult conversation...even in the face of lefty temper tantrums.
