By now it is a familiar scene.
A group of politicians and law enforcement officials gather to bemoan another outbreak of gun violence. This time it was a basketball court at the Bennett Homes housing project in Chester. District Attorney Jack Whelan led a phalanx of officials and lawmen to bemoan still another spike in gun violence in Chester. They stood on the court, where just a few nights before gunmen had sprayed the court with gunfire. It was part of one more violent weekend in the city, one where police were investigating as many as five shooting incidents that left eight people injured. Thankfully, none of the injuries were considered life-threatening. |

Hey. Task THIS.
Prior Restraint forbids interfering with a person's rights without a) a crime having been committed and b) without following due process of law.
The ONLY effective way to deal with "gun violence" is to meet it with equal (or superior) force at the point of contact, in flangrante delicto.
Natural law. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Are we at last brought to such humiliating and debasing degradation, that we cannot be trusted with arms for our defense? Where is the difference between having our arms in possession and under our direction, and having them under the management of Congress? If our defense be the real object of having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety, or equal safety to us, as in our own hands? — Patrick Henry, 3 J. Elliot, Debates in the Several State Conventions 45, 2d ed. Philadelphia, 1836 |
