Offers no path for fix
Mr. Walter Williams’ Thursday column addressed the gun crime in America. Both he and I believe there is a solution. Mr. Williams believes the cause of gun deaths is a moral collapse in American values. I believe in an adjustment in the Second Amendment.
The problem in Mr. Williams’ idea is a lack of the U.S. government’s ability to legislate morality. He offers no path to achieve this. While it is difficult to change gun laws against powerful lobbies, the government has the ability to do so. Mostly again it’s a continued fault of conservatives— tremendous ability to point out problems, and a lack of logical means to solve them. BILL FRITZ Hot Springs Village
