Mark Levin-On Gun Control with Author John Lott - YouTube

Published on Dec 15, 2012

But these people completely ignore the rights of millions of law-abiding, normal American citizens to defend themselves against such insanity, as well as all the cases where lawfully armed citizens have done so. Mark Levin discusses gun control with John Lott, author of More Guns, Less Crime.
