  1. The missing issue: gun control

    Every year, some 31,000 Americans are killed with guns; nearly 340,000 more are victimized in gun-related crimes, with more than 73,000 of those treated in hospital emergency rooms for nonfatal gunshot wounds. The rate of firearms-related homicide in the U.S. is 20 times that of the next 22 richest nations combined, yet measures to reduce the loss of life and the enormous economic and social costs of gun violence have become a virtual non-issue in this year's political campaign season. Neither President Barack Obama nor challenger Mitt Romney appeared willing to risk even talking about renewing a ban on assault rifles with large-capacity magazines — like the one used in the Aurora, Colo., movie theater shooting this year — when the subject was raised by a questioner at the second presidential debate.

  4. Reality House offers look at social problems

    Instead of a traditional Halloween haunted house filled with fog and ghoulish scenes, an outreach ministry in East Baltimore is offering stark glimpses into real-life issues, messages of hope and firm promises of help. The images portrayed at Reality House can be as haunting as any in a tale of horror, mostly because they are based on actual situations.

  8. Yeardley Love's mother speaks out against violence

    There is Chris Brown, these days sporting a neck tattoo that looks like ex-girlfriend Rihanna after he bloodied and bruised her. And Charlie Sheen, whose assault of his wife is somehow just another part of his troubled yet comedic persona.

  12. Md.'s handgun restrictions make us safer

    Thanks to a federal appellate judge, Maryland avoids a deluge of requests next week for permits to carry concealed handguns in public. The state has long required that those who want a permit to carry a weapon not only meet some basic criteria &mdash; no felons, no mental illness, no alcoholism or drug addiction &mdash; but also show a "good and substantial reason" for carrying a gun. Federal District Court Judge Benson Legg, charting new territory in 2nd Amendment jurisprudence, struck the restriction down and ruled that the state must start granting permits without it beginning on Aug. 7. Although the number of applicants who have been denied permits on those grounds is relatively small, gun advocates believe the existence of the restriction has had a chilling effect and that many thousands would come forward as soon as it is dropped.
