What is their stance on the right to bear arms? Do you have a citation.
- dmazin 13y agoThe Economist backs gun control. Citation? It's in the second paragraph of the article this post links to.
- gte525u 13y agoDefinitely pro-gun control to the point they promote the total-ban of guns. On the other hand, and I think this illustrates a type of pragmatism, they were skeptical of proposed reforms post-Sandy Hook.
- skwirl 13y agoThey are a U.K. publication. As far as I know, there isn't much diversity of opinion on the topic of gun control in the U.K. They don't like guns, but they don't like impractical or pointless gun control measures either.
- redthrowaway 13y agoThey think only the government should have guns. They bring it up a lot. http://www.economist.com/blogs/lexington/2012/12/gun-control http://www.economist.com/blogs/lexington/2012/12/gun-control
