Why would any society follow the path of failure like the gun ban failure in the countries of England and Australia or the Cities of Chicago and Baltimore as opposed to following in the footsteps of successful societies such as the Country of Switzerland, the State of Maine or the City of Kennesaw, Georgia.

One Of Georgia’s Safest Cities REQUIRES
Its Citizens To Own A Gun, But CNN Doesn’t Know Why Crime Is So Low
- The Kennesaw, Georgia, law states that “every head of household residing in the city limits is required to maintain a firearm,” according to CNN, and was reportedly passed as a deterrent to crime.“It was meant to be kind of a crime deterrent,” Kennesaw Police Lt. Craig Graydon, a 30-year law enforcement veteran, told CNN. “It was also more or less a political statement because the city of Morton Grove, Illinois, passed a city ordinance banning handguns from their city limits.”
As for would-be criminals looking for an
easy mark, judging by the crime statistics it seems most have bypassed the
Georgia town and moved on to easier targets. Even CNN was forced to admit that
Kennesaw, populated by 33,000 people, has only had “one murder in the last six
years and a violent crime rate of below 2%.”
“But,” writes CNN, “it’s unclear whether
that has anything to do with the gun law.”
.
Kennesaw’s mayor sees it differently.
“If you’re going to commit a crime in
Kennesaw and you’re the criminal — are you going to take a chance that that
homeowner is a law-abiding citizen?” asked Mayor Derek Easterling.
.
“It gives me the ability to protect myself
as opposed to being somewhere where you weren’t allowed to have a firearm or it
was frowned upon,” said Wayne Arnold, a local resident who is a fan of the law.
.
With the gun issue being in the spotlight
of late, town officials have been getting plenty of attention from all over the
world about their law.
.
“We get a lot of calls, conversation, and
it seems to keep crime control, gun safety, things like that on the minds of
many of the residents, because people are constantly talking about the gun
law,” Lt. Graydon told CNN. “So that’s been somewhat of a benefit to us.”
.
Arnold noted the expectation of a “Wild
West” environment with everyone walking around “with a firearm strapped to
their side.”
“And it’s not like that,” said Arnold.
“It’s strictly a home defense system type of deal. There’s no shootouts down
the street.”
