Upon reading the story concerning the sentencing of a career criminal ("Allentown man sentenced in bank, car thefts") and several pages later a letter from a reader who apparently is against the Second Amendment, it is again clear why law-abiding citizens who own firearms mistrust any views or proposals to enact even more laws concerning lawful ownership of firearms.
According to the story, the gentleman being sentenced was arrested 20 times, convicted 13 times, paroled 20 times and had that parole revoked 16 times. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
