Facts - a liberal's worst nightmare

Well, we have some interesting facts that have come about. Some things in this life are purely coincidence. Some things are tied together intricately. Some things are just plain obvious.

File this under the label "obvious."

It is a known fact that since November 4, Americans have been purchasing guns & ammo en masse. My own father has acquired three since then. I've bought a couple. My in-laws recently purchased their first handguns. ATF statistics on numbers of background checks are through the roof.

Folks simply don't trust Mr. Obama.

Nor should they. But back to the point. The simple fact is that gun ownership in America, in terms of sheer volume, is at an all-time high. That leads to a great question - how is crime these days?

In the past, economic downturns, like the one we keep hearing the media blare at us, instigate miniature crime sprees. Desperate folks do desperate things and for many, that means turning to crime to make ends meet.

Not this time. As the NRA reports, While gun ownership levels soar, crime rates are at a 22-year low! As I have always said, criminals want a victim, not a fight!
