Approximately 100,000 people are victims of gun violence annually in the United States, resulting in more than 31,000 deaths. In the aftermath of the mass killings in Newtown, Conn.; San Bernardino, Calif.; and now the June 12 massacre in the gay nightclub in Orlando, Fla., the fight for gun violence protection being waged by two Highland Park Jewish women is gaining in intensity

2/3 are suicide. The latest figures are 250,000 killed by medical errors each year. Maybe you should start there and ban hospitals. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
By calling attention to a well-regulated militia for the security of the Nation, and the right of each citizen to keep and bear arms, our Founding Fathers recognized the essentially civilian nature of our economy. Although it is extremely unlikely that the fears of governmental tyranny, which gave rise to the second amendment, will ever be a major danger to our Nation, the amendment still remains an important declaration of our basic military-civilian relationships, in which every citizen must be ready to participate in the defense of the country. For that reason I believe the second amendment will always be important. --JOHN F. KENNEDY |
