Free shotguns in Houston neighborhood

The Armed Citizen Project in Houston is giving away free shotguns to single women and residents of neighborhoods with high crime rates.

Sounds like a good project for a nonprofit.

The USA writer doesn’t think so, and uses some underhanded measurers to get his point across.

“But others in Houston, while expressing support for the right to bear arms guaranteed by the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, question whether more guns will result in more gun-related deaths rather than less crime.”

(He quotes one “other.”)

“While some residents in the neighborhood are supportive, several officials have mixed feelings about it.”

(He quotes one official, a county commissioner.)
