Showing that as the arguments around more gun control “gun violence prevention” change, the more they stay the same, here’s an editorial from Mr. Bunker.
The excerpt is from the Season 3 opener of All in the Family in which Archie got a chance to deliver an editorial on a local TV station which aired Sept. 16, 1972.
