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.” |

TO REMEMBER |
| Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
