Uddrag

Her får du et lille uddrag. Det er taget fra afsnittet om Discussion: Views on the gun control proposals:

Some experts in “US gun debate: Could Obama's guns plan work?”, are skeptical about the efficacy of some of the measures: “But background checks would not have stopped most school shootings, in which the gunmen took legally obtained weapons from parents with spotless backgrounds, says Jack Levin...” (ll. 30-32) Also, “When gunmen need to reload, victims and first responders have a chance to fight back, says Mr Levin. But Mr Levin also points out that most gun deaths are the result of handguns”. (ll. 5- 53)
