In his recent Letter to the Editor, "Openly carrying guns a threat to public safety," David Abraham states that people who open carry, or concealed carry in a "helter-skelter fashion ... just are looking for trouble." He also states that "if" he lived out in the country he would open carry, or carry concealed. He states that he is a city dweller and firearms in public is a "menace" and that "firearms in public should be confiscated and the owners should be jailed for a few days to drive home the point" of it. Also "police who do not enforce these laws ... equitably, resident or outsider" should also lose their jobs. |

The idiot to whom this LTE refers (David Abraham) needs a couple'a good smacks, just to get his mind right. |

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 |
