6 people shot in Newark's Central Ward | NJ.com

Why gun control is more important than gun rights - to those of us who live in the cities where actual self-defense with a gun is unheard of and gun violence is all too frequent. News like this from Newark always catches my eye since I practiced law for 30 years in the abutting towns of East and South Orange - and tried cases for the Public Defender for four years - 1979 - 1983. - GWC
