Post-Heller Histrionics

I have had a lot of fun reading the hysterics and histrionics from the gun control crowd post-Heller; Sebastian has a great link up to the New England Journal of Medicine where they are of the opinion that the Heller will somehow cause the streets to run with blood.

NEJM unfortunately bases their article on the Loftin study, which has been roundly pounded by other bloggers, so it’s not exactly what I’d call credible.

The last time I remember craziness like this was when the AWB sunset a few years ago – the mantra was almost exactly the same as it is now, just substitute “Heller” for “assault weapons”.and you’d get the same effect.

I guess I’m having a hard time believing Paul Helmke when he says that they like the Heller decision, since every single anti-gun org are screaming their heads off over it. Needless to say, it’s a fun show for me to watch.
