Abstract

As Conor Friedersdorf of the Atlantic has noted, these prosecutors face a dilemma regarding gun charges, given the racial disparity in gun arrests coupled with the Left's generally anti-gun stance. ARTICLES AMID a high murder rate, a spate of horrifying mass shootings, and calls for gun control, conservatives often suggest better enforcement of the gun laws we already have. But they're hardly the only place where guns are: Guns often enter the black market well after they've left the gun store, with the average crime gun traced by the ATF being more than five years old, and with criminals generally reporting in surveys that they procure guns through informal social or street sources.
