Usually, an individual person does not inspire a member of Congress to propose federal legislation. But when Marti Priest called the office of U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison with a gripe, that is exactly what happened. Priest, who lives outside of Ellison’s Minneapolis congressional district in a Twin Cities suburb, was irked when her college-age son told her that the University of Kansas eventually will allow students to carry concealed weapons on campus. Priest is from Kansas herself. She attended KU and her mother is buried in Topeka.

TO REMEMBER |
| Are we at last brought to such humiliating and debasing degradation, that we cannot be trusted with arms for our defense? Where is the difference between having our arms in possession and under our direction, and having them under the management of Congress? If our defense be the real object of having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety, or equal safety to us, as in our own hands? — Patrick Henry, 3 J. Elliot, Debates in the Several State Conventions 45, 2d ed. Philadelphia, 1836 |
