"The Argument Against Banning ‘High’ Capacity Magazines"
Personal involvement often disallows one from seeing both sides clearly.
In a guns vs. guns situation, both attacker and defender are subject to the facts...
At Guns.com, S. H. Blannelberry gives a fair and thorough assessment of this "high capacity" issue:
"But as every gun owner knows, there’s another side to this equation. That is to say, by the same logic one employs to argue for a ban, one can use to argue against the ban — with equal, if not greater, efficacy.
Again, it’s a matter of timing. For example, the longer it takes for a single mother of two to fire off rounds at several home intruders, the worse it is for that mother.
Let’s think about this for a moment. It’s late at night. It’s dark. Three career criminals are breaking into the home of a single mother."
