Two of the nation’s leading gun rights organizations have called for a “national dialogue” on how police respond to active shooter incidents in public places in the wake of the tragic Thanksgiving shooting of an armed citizen who was mistaken for the person who had just wounded two people at the Riverchase Balleria Mall in Hoover, Ala.
The Second Amendment Foundation and Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms will be working with Gun Talk Media to make this conversation happen, according to SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan Gottlieb, and Gun Talk Media founder and host Tom Gresham. |

If cops shoot the wrong guy, they should be held to the same standard as permit holders.
Period. |

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"Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times.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 For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in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 If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal.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) |
