David Cook“I have, like, 10 of them.”
This is my friend talking. My good friend. And he’s telling me about the high-capacity magazines he owns for his guns. The kind that holds 20 or 50 rounds of ammunition.
It’s only a few days after Connecticut when he says it.
“Guns aren’t the problem,” he claims. “This crazy [expletive] society that’s gone to hell is the problem.”
I’ve heard these words a lot lately, especially since my recent column arguing for more gun control. Like banning the assault rifle and high-capacity mags. Longer waiting periods. Stricter than strict background checks. No gun show loopholes.
