I am very pleased yet cautiously optimistic to see Orleans Parish District Attorney Leon Cannizzaro’s call for reasonable gun control.
New Orleanians know all too the well the violence, loss of life and destruction of families that occur on a daily basis but rarely makes the national news. It is a sad state of affairs when as a nation we are so accustomed to mass shootings that even when a mass shooting occurs at a playground, if no one dies, it does not even register at the national level. Therefore, it is refreshing to see an elected official, who by his own admission “believes in the Constitution and in the Second Amendment in particular” call for gun control measures. |

| France has more body count in mass shooting this year than all 7 years of Obama's term. Charlie Hebdo, Jewish center, and Paris attack. Of course if they only had common sense gun control this would not happen. Oh wait, they do. |

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 |
