San Francisco can’t protect you
Of the 94 homicides in San Francisco so far this year, 74 of them reportedly remain unsolved. So not only can the city not protect its citizens from murder, it can’t even locate and prosecute the perpetrators. And yet, San Francisco wants to take handguns, a tool of self-defense, away from law-abiding people.
The Second Amendment Foundation, among others, has filed suit to block the handgun ban, set to take effect Jan. 1. SAF won its fight against an earlier San Francisco gun ban. Here’s hoping it wins again.
The observation raises a flag in my mind over the definition of “solved”. This may require someone to begin serving a sentence, following the usual legal rigamarole. My understanding is that, in Denver at least, someone is either charged or arrested fairly shortly after most killings.
