This video shows the fallacy of such a claim and proves that a practiced and prepared criminal attacker, as most seem to be, will still be able to get off just as many shots just as quickly. As usual, anti-gun laws like this would only hinder and impact the law abiding citizen in their self-defense capacity.

Professor Daniel Lin shows that doing so will actually lead to higher college costs, because loans/grants/tax credits are directly related to the increasing cost of education.

Many argue that we should do more for the poor as a matter of social justice. In some cases, they mean we should use our own time and resources to assist those in need, but more often they mean the government should enact policies that try to help the poor in various ways.

If the U.S. government cut all government services except Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and payments on the debt, federal spending would still outpace revenues.
