Letter: Searching for answers
Re: Glenn Beaton’s article in the June 12 Aspen Times, ”Politics, porn and gun nuts” (Commentary):
Quite some timing — the article coming out the same day as 50 (or more) deaths are reported that are attributed to a deranged individual using a legitimately obtained automatic weapon.
The author indicates that there are “legitimate answers” to the question of how to prevent terrorist and felons from purchasing a gun without background checks. Possibly the author will detail some of those answers in a future article.
I can think of none.
