Let me say up front I have never felt afraid or unsafe where I live in Gun Barrel City. I don't put myself in dangerous situations, or hang out with those who would be considered dangerous. I have no fear.
I know all the facts about drugs and crime in my city. I just don't happen to see it in my neighborhood.
A brazen home invasion Sunday afternoon (story in Thursday’s Athens Daily Review) has left me to think more about my safety, and caused me to be on edge in my quiet little neighborhood.
This incident happened in Gun Barrel City four miles from where I have lived for almost 25 years. |

TO REMEMBER |
| For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
