Here’s my advice to the mighty NRA – you are tremendously misguided if you think the Second Amendment extends to assault weapons, machine guns, bump-stocks, etc. It does not, since it was written during the time of the musket. To all the self-serving weasels (politicians) at every state and federal level: find the courage to ban all assault weapons, and apply the death penalty (with no appeal) to those found guilty of selling such weapons. Then promote the national database for screening ALL applicants for gun ownership, including input from law enforcement agencies, mental health clinics and social work departments. |

"Death penalty to those found guilty of selling (assault weapons)."
Good grief, the next Hitler in the making. We are entering some dangerous times!
Pay attention to what is happening in America --- your life may depend upon it!!!! |

AR15 type rifles are not assault weapons. Assault rifles have been tightly controlled since 1934.
I love that these hair brained liberals think that their opinions are correct when they don't even understand what they are talking about. |

| Guess he's completely misguided also - since he did not write that diatribe with a quill pen that existed at same time as the musket. Bet he also drove one of those incredibly dangerous autos today that kill 40,000 a year rather than riding his horse . |

TO REMEMBER |
| I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
