Every day when I drive to work, there is this nice truck on North Syracuse that has a big “Glock” logo on the back glass. I think it’s pretty neat, although it does make me resentful to be a New Yorker to no end. I don’t think one should have to ask permission of a judge to own a handgun, or any other firearm.

Many of our cities have a crime problem. But the solution to crime is simple — going after criminals. You don’t have to extreme firearm restrictions to go after crime, creating criminals out of law abiding citizens. Instead, you just need to go after murders and other violent criminals who commit actual crimes of violence.
