Controversy continues in the village of Constantine.
Weeks after people packed a village meeting, speaking out over the possibility of an assault rifle ban, another meeting wrapped up Monday night.
The meeting room was packed with people once again Monday, all standing up against any type of ban.
Tempers were high at tonight's Constantine Village Council meeting.
The hot topic: whether or not to ban assault rifles in the community.
"Everybody has the right to bear arms, that's all we're trying to do. And she's trying to take them away from us," said resident Phil Lockwood.

"Weiss says she's not calling for a ban on guns, but wanted to hear from her community."
This is commonly known as the "walk-back".
Translation: "When I proposed a ban on guns, I really wasn't calling for a ban on guns."
Huh?
Despicable. They should dump this witch as soon as possible. |

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 |
