Thom Hartman points out the direct correlation between income inequity and gun and knife crime.

When will the NRA put income equity in its platform to reduce gun crime? We've all been wrong. It is not gun laws or the number of gun owners and legal carriers that dictate gun crime. It is a high disparity in incomes. Want to lower your chances of being a victim of crime, push for higher taxes on the rich and better safety net and social programs along with better educational opportunities for those that can not afford them now. We've been arguing about apples, when along the question is about oranges.
