The first is the irrational abundance of guns on our streets. Yes, we have the Second Amendment, but, Good Lord, that right hardly seems to allow assault weapons, high-capacity magazines, rifles with vest-piercing bullets and weapons that seem to be readily available to teenagers, ex-convicts and unstable men and women.
The Catholic Church has always been an advocate of sane, reasonable gun and ammunition control, by the way, and an unflagging critic of the international arms bazaar. The Popes, our bishop’s conference and individual bishops have pointed out that sensible gun control is actually a “pro-life issue.” |

Sorry, Your Eminence, that is Bull Schiff!
Keeping the law abiding from possessing the means of self defense is the crime! |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
