   From the article —

   “Keller said other cities with the same initiative have seen violent crime reduce by 10%-30%. Keller said he expects to see results in 9-18 months.”

   9 – 18 months — that’s right when he plans on getting re-elected.

   “VOTE FOR TIMMY AND CRIME WILL GO AWAY” will be part of their ad copy, no?

   Because he’s done such a great job so far, right?

   I think that Mr. Biden very much DOES understand the Second Amendment and the individual, civil, human right to own and carry weapons (including but NOT limited to firearms) for defense of self, others and community.

   That is why he and others are so hot to trot on eliminating that right, by hook or crook or any means necessary.
