These students are being told that stricter gun control laws will somehow make them safer. With over 22,000 federal, state, and local gun laws currently on the books that would appear to be a blatant lie. And should they somehow manage to eliminate most if not all of the 400 million firearms estimated to be in private hands, what then? Peace and safety such as we see in Great Britain where their violent crime rate is only five times greater than ours. And cities such as London with a murder rate only slightly higher than New York City. |

QUOTES
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]. |
