Ponder this

There is one indisputable fact that must be taken into consideration by leaders in statehouses and in houses of worship. Wherever guns are in abundance, cumulative deaths by those guns will surely follow. There are more guns in America’s Southland than any other section of the country and it is not a coincidence that the South has the highest rates of gun deaths, with New Orleans holding the distinction of being America’s per capita murder capital. As more and more students acquire concealed carry permits, we can with certainty predict there will be more murders and heartbreaking accidents. Concealed carry individuals, just like the rest of us, have their own idiosyncrasies, limitations, and breaking points.—America and Its Guns: A Theological Expose, page 106
