Akron City Council overwhelmingly passed a resolution Monday that asks state lawmakers to ban assault weapons and other devices used in recent mass shootings. Councilwoman Tara Samples, who represents much of downtown and South Akron, first proposed the plan in a public safety committee meeting Monday afternoon. The resolution is not law, it asks the legislature to enact gun control that failed in the U.S. Senate in 2013. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
