Newsom proposes constitutional amendment to restrict gun rights
FOX NewsMAR 31 2023
While a new amendment is a longshot bid, Newsom should be applauded for trying to shift the national conversation toward finding solutions for gun violence. In the midst of this explosion of gun violence, it's time we are proactive and finally take a real step to end the despair and gridlock surrounding gun violence. Too many people have died waiting for an answer to this crisis; it's time to fight back.
An attention-hungry Newsom is launching a doomed campaign for proposals that are going to do little to actually stop gun violence. The empirical evidence suggests that just about every one of the proposals will do nothing to reduce violence, and will only serve to frustrate law-abiding citizens in exercising their right to self-defense. We ought to be looking for real solutions to gun crime, not rehashing discredited ideas. Newsom would be better served focused on governing his home state rather than chasing woke national fantasies.
