towns such as Kennesaw, Ga., Greenfeld, Idaho and Geuda Springs, Kan., which all require residents to own guns

I'd be curious to know what the crime rate is in those towns. Probably lower than, say, D.C.

Well, you can either allow people to own guns to protect themselves, or you can try to do the job for them by hiring 55,000 police.

I wouldn't call the 2nd choice "limited-government fiscal conservatism", but some do.

One thing is sure -- if you hire more police than the next 4 largest city police forces in the country COMBINED, you can get your crime rate slightly lower than those other cities.

In Kennesaw, GA, crime is next to nonexistent.
But it was never very high to start with!

I used to live not real far from Geuda Springs...

If you barely ( and I mean barely....) blinked...you missed Geuda Springs, KS.
