Texas Republican Senator Ted Cruz was taken to task by a newspaper in his own state this week for his attempt to block President Joe Biden's latest crackdown on "ghost guns." On Monday, the Houston Chronicle editorial board criticized Cruz for promoting "Second-Amendment absolutism" amid a rise in U.S. gun violence. The editorial comes after Cruz and three other Republican senators announced last week that they would attempt to stop Biden's latest gun control measure, which is meant to stop Americans from purchasing so-called "ghost guns," unlicensed firearm kits that can be self-assembled at home. |

he Houston hronical is an ultra left wing rag. If the Chronicle is against the bill Cruz proposes, then that bill is the best thing for America and its people! |

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 |
