In response to a series of school shootings across the country, the Kingston Common Council may be taking action to garner federal and state support for more stringent safety protocols regarding firearms. Alderman Reynolds Scott-Childress, who authored the local memorializing resolution, said although the spirit is to promote a broad range of anti-gun violence efforts, there are specific details he would like to see state and federal officials tackle. |

The Supreme Court in US. v. Miller said that there are certain weapons that are protected, namely, arms in common use that specifically have militia utility.
And you can't get beyond that barrier.
Period. |

TO REMEMBER |
| We'll take one step at a time, and the first is necessarily - given the political realities - very modest. We'll have to start working again to strengthen the law, and then again to strengthen the next law and again and again. Our ultimate goal, total control of handguns, is going to take time. The first problem is to slow down production and sales. Next is to get registration. The final problem is to make possession of all handguns and ammunition (with a few exceptions) totally illegal. — Pete Shields, founder of Handgun Control, Inc., New Yorker Magazine, June 26, 1976, pg. 53 |
