Drawing an armed, camouflaged soldier earned a third-grader an in-school suspension at a West Monroe, La. elementary school. Principal Edward Davis described the drawing that drew the punishment Thursday as "upsetting". The soldier was holding a canteen in one hand and a knife in the other. ~~~~ There is nothing I can comment to this innane stupidity. Except that I feel darn lucky to be past my school years. |

Thirty-five of the city's most dangerous men, some stirring impatiently in their metal chairs and others staring forward intently, listened as a parade of top law enforcement personalities took them to the figurative woodshed. ~~~~~ I wonder if this new program will work. It would be really nice if it does. |

"God, according to the Honorable McCain-Feingold, has decreed that the "Congressional 535" are, and of by right ought to be, free from public scrutiny or opposition. (Save, perhaps, that opposition allowed by appropriate agencies.) Of course, we can trust the government to allow legitimate opposition. Indeed, the enlightened campaign finance reformers of China and the old Soviet Union have shown us how to correctly regulate political speech." -MICHAEL QUINN SULLIVAN |

The lead story in this morning's 'Metro & Texas' section of the Austin Statesman-American spelled it out in the headline: "Payments made to backers of gun bills." The payments didn't come from a "Million Mommy," as we first heard, but from Dave Smith, president of Houston-based "Texans for Gun Safety," an outfit funded by the "Catholic Campaign for Human Development" and the "Alliance for Justice". |

"One example largely ignored by the media occurred at a high school in Pearl, Mississippi. Assistant Principal Joel Myrick used his handgun to stop the murderous shooting rampage of a deranged student. Unfortunately, the law forced Myrick to keep his weapon locked in his car off school property. By the time he could retrieve it and return, two students were already dead." -Dr. Michael S. Brown |

On Friday, people will be able to walk into the Rampart Range Sertoma Sportsman and Arms Show in Colorado Springs and buy a pistol or a rifle from unlicensed gun dealers without having their pasts probed.
On Saturday, at the same show, a criminal background check will be required as Amendment 22, the popular initiative approved by voters in November, goes into effect.
Because the gun show straddles two standards, it will give authorities and gun dealers a good chance to make comparisons. |
