"In response to Gloria Thomas (Letters, Feb. 5) calling for a boycott of Kroger stores until the chain drops its open-carry policy for gun owners: Gloria, your words are foolish and dangerous. Forget the fact the Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution protects the individual right of all citizens to keep and bear arms. Let’s consider recent history. You claim shoppers need not show (carry) a gun to shop in the store. This is a true statement. The same can be said for those attending school in this country. So 'gun-free zones' have been created." ... |

Thanks to the publicity generated by these anti-gun mavens and a co-operative media the crime stats indicate criminal elements are targeting customers of stores acquiescing to their demands.

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
