Letter: New York’s gun control a monumental stupidity

Of course, there are nuts out there who get guns. Strike them down forcefully, stop them permanently, but taking guns from lawful citizens is not the answer.

Mayor Giuliani of New York City is a wimp, typical of the pacifist nannies who rant and rave about controlling guns. He doesn't speak for the citizens of New York. If they voted, there would be the same percentage of them electing to have guns as in the 31 states which now have gun rights.

He and the other cowardly anti-gun forces refuse to understand the facts. There is a decrease in crime of any nature in the 31 states that have the right-to-carry laws.

He and others of his ilk are the cause of gang violence and gang members' ability to get guns to shoot down innocent citizens, precious children in stupid drive-bys. The courts release them and their guns to kill again and again. What monumental stupidity! The police sit in wonderment, risking their lives over and over again. They are helpless too.
