Seems the Obama Admin. latest is an "encore performance" of the liberati - induced ban on "Saturday Night Specials". We all know how that turned out. Only poor individuals were "disarmed" - by economic hardship. And street cops faced criminals armed with better, more reliable, guns.
I - unlike most of the anti-gun crowd - accept others have the "right" to express their opinion on firearms ownership". But I must insist the AG's do not have "the right to their own facts" ! Surely, in the 21st century we have the technology and resources to secure and assemble accurate data on the misuse of firearms. And - I hope - the morality and ethics to address the issue with civility. So far restraint seems to be unilaterally pro-gun. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Those, who have the command of the arms in a country are masters of the state, and have it in their power to make what revolutions they please. [Thus,] there is no end to observations on the difference between the measures likely to be pursued by a minister backed by a standing army, and those of a court awed by the fear of an armed people. — Aristotle, as quoted by John Trenchard and Water Moyle, An Argument Shewing, That a Standing Army Is Inconsistent with a Free Government, and Absolutely Destructive to the Constitution of the English Monarchy [London, 1697]. |
