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 |
"Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
