Last week President Barack Obama answered a few questions after participating in a PBS NewsHour town hall meeting in Elkhart, Ind. A local gun shop owner, Doug Rhude, stood up in the audience and asked: “Knowing that we apply common sense to other issues in our society, specifically holding irresponsible people accountable for their actions when they drink and drive and kill somebody; and we do that without restricting control of cars and cell phones to the rest of us, the good guys; why then, do you and Hillary want to control and restrict and limit gun manufacturers, gun owners, and the responsible use of guns and ammunition to the rest of us, the good guys, instead of holding the bad guys accountable for their actions?”

Walking into a PBS Newshour townhall is to confront the enemy in his own camp will fail. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
