"You monster. You beast. You unspeakable bastard.
What lesson did you hope to teach us by your coward's attack on our World Trade Center, our Pentagon, us? What was it you hoped we would learn? Whatever it was, please know that you failed.
Did you want us to respect your cause? You just damned your cause.
Did you want to make us fear? You just steeled our resolve.
Did you want to tear us apart? You just brought us together."

"Now, I'm not certainly calling the NRA skunks, but I don't believe that Mark Warner wants to be in the company" of the nation's most politically powerful gun-rights organization, Wilder added. |

"It just reinforces the need. Unfortunately, there' s just too much gun violence," Democratic Assembly speaker Bob Herzberg, said.
"Here, you've got officers with handguns going into a gunfight with an individual with an AK-47," Sacramento County Sheriff Lou Blanas said. |

Why did licensing lose? Because the sponsors of the legislation in question, Assembly Majority Leader Kevin Shelley, D-San Francisco, and Sen. Jack Scott, D-Altadena, couldn't make a sufficiently convincing case that licensing would accomplish anything useful.
More to the point, they couldn't convince two of California's premier law enforcement organizations that licensing handgun owners was either necessary or advisable. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
