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 |
[The American Colonies were] all democratic governments, where the power is in the hands of the people and where there is not the least difficulty or jealousy about putting arms into the hands of every man in the country. [European countries should not] be ignorant of the strength and the force of such a form of government and how strenuously and almost wonderfully people living under one have sometimes exerted themselves in defence of their rights and liberties and how fatally it has ended with many a man and many a state who have entered into quarrels, wars and contests with them. — George Mason, "Remarks on Annual Elections for the Fairfax Independent Company" in The Papers of George Mason, 1725-1792, ed Robert A. Rutland (Chapel Hill, 1970). |
