Off-Topic

Here's an article about a man in China who murdered five policemen with a knife. You will note that there were no guns involved in the incident. Despite that fact, as the submitter points out, the author manages to take a swipe at gun ownership in the last line of the article.

Violent street crime is rare in China, where private gun ownership is virtually banned.

Civil disobedience is rare in China as well. That's because the government runs over protesters with tanks. But liberals are all too willing to overlook such inconveniences in their rabid adoration of societies which enact gun bans. That's one of the glaring weaknesses of the Left: they tend to obsess over an issue until it becomes a neurosis.
