There is also much evidence showing the ineffectiveness and illogicality of so-called "gun-free zones" (aka "defenseless victim zones") as well as the failure of the estimated 20,000 gun laws in the USA to effectively reduce gun crime. But does this evidence impact the thinking of liberals in government or the media? Of course not. To help understand why, you should read the book by Lyle H. Rossiter, Jr., M.D. entitled 'The Liberal Mind, The Psychological Causes of Political Madness'. This book documents why liberalism is truly a mental disorder. “In an authoritative study, the National Academy of Sciences reported that “the theory underlying gun buyback programs is badly flawed and the empirical evidence demonstrates the ineffectiveness of these programs.”” Absolutely true.
