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 |
| 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 |
