As Second Amendment absolutists continue to complain that this report is “one-sided” because we are not publishing examples of the many, many (oh-so-many!) instances of people who use guns to defend themselves, we throw down a challenge. My assistant Jennifer and I publish this report based simply on a daily Google search and occasional articles that we come across in the course of our day. If you send us examples of self-defense that you find, we will print them. You have to use the same rules we use: stick to simple online searches, and only use incidents that take place that day. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
