This resolution pretends to speak for all Vernon County residents, opposing any and all "common sense" gun safety laws in Vernon County. No matter that I and everyone else that I know actually support these laws. No matter that Vernon County residents showed up in the overwhelming majority to oppose this very resolution at a July committee meeting. No matter that Wisconsinites and Americans - including a majority of gun-owners - overwhelmingly support common sense gun laws. |

"No matter that . . . Americans - including a majority of gun-owners - overwhelmingly support common sense gun laws."
Repeating that lie doesn't make it true. The vast majority of gun owners don't approve of restrictions that only affect law-abiding, peaceable people, which all gun laws do - DE FACTO. Criminals don't obey laws, and they don't discriminate about which ones they violate. They don't get background checks, they don't get carry permits, they have no compunction about using guns to commit crimes, including but not limited to robbery and murder.
Stick a hose in your ear, turn the water up full blast, and pressure-wash that leftist propaganda out of your head. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Some of the worst abuses of government force in recent years were precipitated by technical and victimless gun-law violations. For example, the BATF claimed that the Branch Davidians possessed machine guns without paying the required federal tax and filling in the proper registration forms. So a tax case worth less than $10,000 led to a 76-man helicopter, machine gun, and grenade assault on a home in which 2/3 of the occupants were women and children. — Dave Kopel and Dr. Michael S.
