Spirit Plaza in downtown Detroit will host a rally Sunday afternoon urging two pieces of federal legislation regarding guns in America: mandatory background checks before gun sales, and a process to allow law enforcement to temporarily remove guns from people's homes who exhibit "red flags."
Sunday's rally comes just hours after an eight-hour period, between Saturday night and Sunday morning, where Detroit had eight people shot, one of them fatally, at six shooting scenes.
"Our focus is to get Congress to act at a federal level to get background checks passed," said Lindsay Warren, a deputy leader of the Michigan chapter of Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America. |

TO REMEMBER |
To trust arms in the hands of the people at large has, in Europe, been believed...to be an experiment fraught only with danger. Here by a long trial it has been proved to be perfectly harmless...If the government be equitable; if it be reasonable in its exactions; if proper attention be paid to the education of children in knowledge and religion, few men will be disposed to use arms, unless for their amusement, and for the defence of themselves and their country. — Timothy Dwight, Travels in New England and New York [London 1823] |
