leoj,

He's a Professor of Philosophy at Eastern Kentucky University.
He's published numerous works (books and journal articles)
on a wide variety of subjects. However ethics is his speciality.
He lives and works in the US, he has a PhD, and does his research
on a variety of subjects. Unlike other opinion holders in this
country (Bolt, Hanson, Ackerman - and many others who come to
mind). He knows what he's talking about. He knows his facts and
cites them.

You of course are quite welcome to use your own sources for
your information.

So he has squat. SFA. Nil. Nothing. A waste of time.

Just another self-promoter casting about for something 'controversial' to get his name up somewhere?

He is not too flash on research methods either. Not scientific by any stretch of the imagination.

Julian,

"If something looks like a duck, walks like a duck, flies like a duck, quacks like a duck, tastes like a duck, hangs out with ducks, it's a duck."

So you cannot back up your assertions with a reference; why am I not surprised?

leoj,

So let me get this straight.

Are you disputing the facts that strict gun laws in
one city will be ineffective if the laws of the state
in which that city is located are lax, as is the case in
Illinois?

Are you disputing the fact that between 2008 and 2012 Chicago
police recovered 1,375 guns that were used in criminal
activities and that almost 20% of these guns came from a
single store "Chuck's Gun Shop," located a few miles
outside of the Chicago city limits in Riversdale, Illinois?

And are you disputing the fact that people who want guns can
simply go outside Chicago, obtain them with ease and bring them
back into the city?

These are all well known facts. One doesn't need a degree
in criminology to argue these facts.

What is your problem? I suspect you are merely trying on your
usual diversion tactics here.

Tsk. Tsk.

Julian,

NRAA ! !, you seem to lack a lot of knowledge, the NRAA is in no way connected to the NRA of America except that their members sometimes shoot in the same International competitions.

You'll have to do better than that to shew any connection between the gun lobby in Australia and the NRA in the US.
