74. No, I don't

I said if I can't get you to admit the very simple fact that the AWB was due to gang violence, then there's no point in debating anything else with you.

2001. Half of all murders in L.A. were gang related.

The drop in the murder rate between 1993 and 2000 was substantial.

The AWB worked. I don't care how many twisted up piles of statistics you want to toss around, it worked. Gun crime was down, and now it it's going back up.

Woohoo! Let's go shoot us some bad guys!
