The Georgia teenager who opened fire in the commons area of Heritage High School in Conyers, Ga., last May was sentenced to 40 years in prison, Reuters reported Nov. 13.

"Some people are saying, 'I want to get a gun now before they register it or take it away from me,'" said Ken Glass, organizer of the show.
Attendees at the show expressed anger and suspicion over the fact that the state was keeping a record of gun transactions. "I'm not totally against background checks," said Art Larson, a gun collector. "But I'm not sure stockpiling the names of honest citizens is the answer. I buy and sell just for fun, and it's going to be more difficult."

TO REMEMBER |
| A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. ~ Marcus Tullius Cicero (42B.C) |
