"Trying to reduce gun crime by rationing firearms to law abiding citizens is a little like trying to reduce stabbings by rationing steak knives to restaurant goers, which is why the Court found the ordinance to be irrational. The criminal misuse of any lawful product is not a function of the number of units sold to honest citizens; it’s a function of how effectively society deals with those who misuse them." -- Attorney Scott Bach, at NJ.com, commenting on a recent lower court decision in New Jersey that overturned a local ordinance rationing gun sales.
