The Lord says, “Be not afraid.”
Utah legislators say, “Be very afraid. So afraid that you feel compelled to carry the means of causing serious bodily injury or death on your person at all times.”
Jesus said, “turn the other cheek.”
Utah legislators say, “Shoot first, ask questions later.”
The Social Doctrine of our church says, “Every individual has fundamental rights, and with these rights come corresponding responsibilities.” |

| Since the U.S. Constitution prohibits establishing theocracies by guaranteeing a republican form of government in each state, this article is pointless. |

TO REMEMBER |
| To trust arms in the hands of the people at large has, in Europe, been believed...to be an experiment fraught only with danger. Here by a long trial it has been proved to be perfectly harmless...If the government be equitable; if it be reasonable in its exactions; if proper attention be paid to the education of children in knowledge and religion, few men will be disposed to use arms, unless for their amusement, and for the defence of themselves and their country. — Timothy Dwight, Travels in New England and New York [London 1823] |
