    Excellent article. I'd read the Sun more regularly if they included content like this more often, but we all know that'll never happen!

    The author is indeed a board member. Some of you have correctly identified them. They do not wish to have their screen name identified. Thanks for your assistance.

    Great article! I was looking for an example of a Sun article that I saw online months ago with the crime stats and guns used etc. I have reached my free usage of the Baltimore Sun this month without a subscription but I am pretty sure this is the article

    http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/ma...7-homicide-data-breakdown-20180103-story.html

    It was surprisingly, blatantly pointing out the fact that stolen handguns were the overwhelmingly used weapon in the vast majority of the crimes by people with criminal records along with other stats. It was obvious from reading that article that anyone with half a brain could tell that the problem lies in the criminal element, not the guns or lack of laws in the state. In searching for that article, I came across the page below. You know that your city has a crime problem when you have to go to this extent to create a webpage of this magnitude to outline your homicides..... This page is unbelievable!

    Great letter, but it will fall on deaf ears with the left.

    They hate the idea of the second amendment because it stands for self-sufficiency. If you don't rely of the state for security, what is next? Everything else are just irrational justifications...

    Good letter. Thanks for posting.

    Must have struck a chord with you. You signed up two years ago and commenting on said letter was your first post?

    All i have to say is, welcome, friendly "new" guy! Head over to the introductions forum and say hi. Then consider doing what Swinokur et al will suggest.
