Her arguments are not supported by verifiable science. Gun control is an artificial political platform. It's need was not supported by rising crime statistics. Rather it is a cheap but ineffective political ploy to address isolated firearms outrages. The Liberal Party has successfully milked votes based on the ignorance and fear of urban voters when confronted with crime issues. Ms. Mendelman can whine on until the cows come home but her philosophy does nothing to improve public safety. In fact she and her ilk have a negative effect on public safety as they distract legislators from dealing with the real issues of urban gangs,the social conditions that breed them and cross border smuggling of guns, drugs and cigarettes. Ms. Mandelman can't debate the issue of firearms ownership successfully so that is why she and her antis avoid a fair and open national debate on the long gun registry. They do not want the worldwide failure of bans to be publicised in a national forum. They unfortunately prove the old maxim, when the truth fails lie!
