GOP should do this nationally. Create a bill called the Americans for safety act and pass it.

When was the last murder there?

Come on...at least attempt the question....But facts are facts....and this 20+ year fact just kills (pun intended) that your "less guns equals less violence" crap....

So, which anti gun nut is first.....
I thought you righties were against laws that required commerce or purchases.

I'm against the government forcing people to do many things, whether it's mandatory ID's or mandatory gun ownership.

Kennesaw GA sounds like a big gubiment supporter's wet dream

You still have not answered my question, btw what was the crime rate in Kennesaw before this law was enacted? Probably comparable to what it is now right?

You have failed to answer the OP....when you can adequately do this, then you may be worthy of an answer....saying the "population" is why they have little crime, is not an answer....remember this was is the early 80's when this was enacted....was crime a problem then?

No, let me answer, if you say the population is the reason that there is so little crime, then why does this small town have 85% less crime than other towns.....

Oh, and there are over 100+ other town with less population than Kennesaw....
