It is just bloody unbelievable that ABC NEWS permitted that to air - especially the fact that guns in private hands are at least 3 times as likely to be used for lawful defense purposes than for crime.....

It's amazing they let John Stossel have a show in the first place. His book publisher dubbed him "The Scrouge of the Liberal Media". He's a libertarian who's views on government and economics are not what you'd expect from a major ABC reporter. I personally think his views are pretty interesting. I don't agree with all of them, but some of them make a lot of sense.
Here's a little blip about him from wikipedia: .....outlines Stossel's career, documenting his philosophical transition from a liberal political stance toward
libertarianism. It summarizes his opinions concerning the disasters of excessive regulation and government control, and his strong belief in the power of the free market and private enterprise. In its conclusion he calls for a reform of lawsuits, decreased regulation, and shifting social services away from the government and encouraging private charity.
