Goodman: This is an example of where an issue bubbles up from our grassroots. We’ve been working on gun safety – not gun control – for Florida for the past three or four years. We’ve worked the past two years on both “campus carry” and “open carry,” and have been able to beat those against the most powerful lobby in this state, the National Rifle Association.
...
We’re asking for two things: Universal, expanded background checks for the state of Florida; and a ban on assault weapons, specifically the type used in the Pulse shooting that includes large clips of ammunition. |

| They can call it whatever they want, but it sure sounds like gun control to me. |

| If it's gun safety you won't, NRA offers numerous courses, the League of Women Voters, none. |

TO REMEMBER |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
