Shortly after writing that post on November 7 in response to a Salt Lake Tribune public forum article regarding the ban on guns at the University of Utah, I decided to send in my own public forum article, and it appeared in today's paper.
Another guy submitted a similar article that appears in today's paper as well, and makes the same point about murder already being illegal.
It would be nice for once if somebody who was against handguns would use facts in their appeals to society, rather than relying on fear and disinformation.
