I'm kinda torn on gun control. On one hand I'm from a family of hunters so I generally oppose most forms of gun control. On the other I moved to NY a couple of years ago. It's VERY hard to get a gun here, and after dealing with certain people day in and day out I'm glad they can't get a gun so easily. Now and then I hear of robbery attempts with crowbars and the like and it kinda makes me laugh.
What I'd like to know is what impact New York's strict gun control laws have had on their crime rate, if any.
