Juan Williams Gun Quotations

I support gun control. But speaking honestly about the combustible mix of race and guns may be more important to stopping the slaughter in minority communities than any new gun-control laws.

As President Obama is inaugurated for a second time, the biggest political surprise is that gun control is now key to his political legacy.

Apparently, the heart of opposition to new gun regulations is in the white community. Yet white people face far less daily violence with guns.

Gun-related violence and murders are concentrated among blacks and Latinos in big cities.

Murders with guns are the No. 1 cause of death for African-American men between the ages of 15 and 34. But talking about race in the context of guns would also mean taking on a subject that can't be addressed by passing a law: the family-breakdown issues that lead too many minority children to find social status and power in guns.
