"We have a gun problem. We have a gun problem in Nebraska. That rhetoric is not helping us solve the problem," [Vacarro] said.
We have a Constitution. The last time I checked, Nebraska was part of the United States.
Violating the Bill of Rights creates a whole new set of problems; it doesn't remedy one we already have.
Ms. Vacarro et al are among those who are willing to sacrifice liberty for what they (mistakenly) perceive as "safety."
See: Ben Franklin
"Those who give up essential liberty for a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."

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]. |
