Good guy with a gun 0, bad guy with a gun 1
Last week in Chicago, we lost a good guy with a gun, a 31 year police commander veteran named Paul Bauer, just one year older than me.
A husband, a father, killed by an ex con that easily got his hand on a weapon.

So far 12 Good guys with a gun have been killed in the line of duty. More than one a week.
If you peddle your gun nut bullshit with me, I am going to tell you to go fuck yourself.
Guns kill, that is all.
