THE PEOPLE OF LOS ANGELES SPEAK OUT ON GUN CONTROL, NOT IN WORDS, BUT IN DEED

Angelenos buying 200 guns every day

The residents of LA are voting on gun control with their pocketbooks. Take that Mr. Obama!

Our Cheerleader-in-Chief’s yell “They deserve a vote. They deserve a vote. They deserve a vote” has been heard loud and clear in LA.

Here are some excerpts from ‘Los Angeles Residents Buying 200 Guns A Day,’ a report by Rick Orlov that was published in the February 14 issue of the Los Angeles Daily News:

Los Angeles residents apply to buy 200 guns a day, an alarming number making it difficult to get weapons off the street, City Attorney Carmen Trutanich said in a preliminary report on gun purchases in Los Angeles.

"With Angelenos buying an average of nearly 200 firearms every day, thousands every month and tens of thousands every year, I will do everything in my power to keep guns out of the hands of people interested only in destroying the lives of children, families and police officers," Trutanich, who is in a close re-election race, said in a written statement.

Trutanich said he was surprised at the number of weapons being bought every day.

"You are talking about 73,000 guns a year, just in Los Angeles," he said. "I never guessed how many guns were being bought and sold."

Gun control (unilateral personal disarmament) is always better in the third person than in the first person. Ask Diane Feinstein, she'll tell you.
