Article IV of the U.S. Constitution delegates to Congress the authority to mandate Full Faith and Credit, which would underwrite a national concealed-carry reciprocity law. Congress has the authority to enact one, and it should do so post-haste.
And it strains credibility to believe that arms in common use for over a century by the American public, and in fact the most popular arms favored by the people, have suddenly become "dangerous and unusual" and may therefore be banned wholesale. That ridiculous assertion is the worst kind of political alchemy, worthy of the Red Queen. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
