It’s not exactly an “anti-gun” report, but there are certainly tinges of shock that someone would have a gun and protect himself.

I like that the 15 years old kids in Philly are allowed to carry guns…wait?…they’re NOT allowed to have guns?…it’s illegal for 15 years old kids in Philly to have guns? Oh, but one had a gun… But it’s illegal for him to have a gun? He’s a juvi criminal and doesn’t care that it’s illegal for him to have a gun? Oh… Seems the law isn’t all that effective against criminal types, huh?
