Each day a liberal gets up on the floor of the Senate and reads off a list of people killed by guns the day before. These names are supposed to shock us into demanding more gun control. (Of course, they don't give any details--one guy may have been killed in a battle over drugs, another guy may have been shot while trying to rob a grocer, another in a gang war, etc.)
Senator Larry Craig, R-Idaho, decided to turn the tables and read stories of individuals saved by guns. His aide contacted me and I sent him my entire database of nearly 6,000 cases. In addition, the aide had scoured the internet and found hundreds more cases that I didn't have.
To make a long story short, Senator Craig reads these stories on the floor of the Senate as a counter-attack on the anti-gunners. Because of his work, Dr. Lott's work, Dr. Kleck's work, and countless others who are working for the cause, I think the issue of self-defense may begin to get the recognition it should. It is, in my opinion, the key issue in the debate over guns.
When my next book is published (hopefully in the Fall of next year), it will have even more cases than my last book. With all of us working together, we hope to bludgeon the mainstream media into reporting self-defense stories.
I want to thank those on this forum who post self-defense stories. I always add them to my database, and they are used in many ways.
You might wish to write to Senator Craig and thank him for the good work he's doing to bring this issue to the forefront.
