    | Know your enemy. She is 78 years old, less than five feet tall, earns $316,000 a year, packs heat in her purse and lives in Tallahassee. She is Marion Hammer, the Florida lobbyist for the National Rifle Association. Long ago she lived in Gainesville, while her husband studied building construction. Reporter Mike Spies devotes an article to her in the current (March 5) New Yorker magazine. And David Cole, legal director of the American Civil Liberties Union, chronicles her control of the Florida Legislature in his book entitled “Engines of Liberty.”

    | Some better advice: 
 If you want the republic to still be here when you're 40, keep your mouths shut (and don't vote) until you've lived long enough to understand how life works.

    | Marion Hammer is a patriot.  She had nothing to do with the Parkland shooting.  Just because you do not agree with does not give you reason to vilify her. |
