When fashionable people can afford to hire security guards or live in gated communities, they tend to think of self-defense as a neurotic obsession of the gauche and overwrought. They don't think they need handguns, therefore no one needs handguns. They are undeterred by research that shows that their gun bans don't reduce crime, because it only matters that they mean well.
They are undeterred by [facts that contradict their beliefs], because it only matters that they mean well.
Does that sum up the progressive drive or what?
