Media leader speaks frankly

Posted by David Hardy · 21 April 2007 09:50 AM

Every now and then, one retires, and then speaks his mind. Tom Plate was formerly editorial page editor of the LA Times; now he teaching at UCLA and free to tell us what he thinks:

"In the nineties, the Los Angeles Times courageously endorsed an all-but-complete ban on privately owned guns, in an effort to greatly reduce their availability."

"The correct target of our concern needs to be guns. America has more than it can possibly handle. How many can our society handle? My opinion is: as close to zero as possible."

The fact that he was robbed at gun point earlier this year, surprisingly, had no affect on his opinion.
