"Two police officers making a routine traffic stop in this rough border city were killed Monday when four men riding in the car they had just stopped grabbed machine guns and sprayed their cruiser with more than 50 bullets."

"When the car finally pulled over to the side of the road, the men inside opened fire..." |

"Throughout history it is clear, that men have had to endure tyrannical Kings, Dictators, and numerous other forms of over-bearing governments. In light of the sin nature of the leaders, as we were warned by God, these governments always end in disaster. When studying the scriptures from Genesis to Revelation, it is clear that every man is to be self-governing yet work with his community to protect and serve each another." |

This thoroughly unscientific 'study' reported by the Harvard School of Public Health in Boston, Massachusetts, purports (in grand liberal tradition) to indicate all kinds of 'statistics'."
This is yet another big-media opportunity to trot out the old standards: health professionals need to step in and 'educate' patients about the horrors of guns; guns need to be "designed to permit only the authorized owner to fire them;" more arbitrary figures about "children" committing suicide; etc.

"Less than two years ago, it seemed, we were on the brink of a serious discussion about the role of guns in America. A string of grisly killings, coupled with a President who saw opportunity in battling the National Rifle Association, had given new momentum to the seemingly endless and often fruitless quest for more gun control. But windows open and windows close, and at the end of that particular bout of self-examination we had no more meaningful legislation than we had before it started." |

"According to police reports, on Nov. 29, 2001, Talada entered Solock Sporting Goods Store in Sayre and attempted to purchase a Mauser 8mm Model Yugo 48 rifle. To complete the purchase, Talada was required to file an ATF Form 4473 which is required by Pennsylvania Law."
"Police said that Talada answered 'No' to a question on the form which asks the question, 'Have you been convicted in any court of a crime for which the judge could have imprisoned you for more than a year, even if the judge actually gave you a shorter sentence?' While investigating the matter, police said they found Talada had been convicted of six offenses in which he could have been sentenced to over one year."
"Those charges include, but aren't limited to: four counts of retail theft, theft by unlawful taking, and criminal conspiracy to commit forgery." [NOTE: Those are all non-violent crimes.]
