Re: Victor Joecks June 12 column debunking gun myths:
One thing that is not a myth: Without AR-15-type weapons, the good folks shopping at Tops in Buffalo, New York, would still be with us, and the children in Uvalde would be on summer vacation, like his children.
Mr. Joecks’ lack of empathy for innocent victims is disgusting and shameful.
