The Ann Arbor Public Schools Board of Education president encouraged Michigan legislators to stop taking money from gun lobby groups and start listening to their constituents.
There is overwhelming support for common sense gun law across the country, said Deb Mexicotte at Wednesday's school board meeting.
"We are hanging on by our fingernails to keep the most vulnerable population safe from this lunacy," she said. "There is no right in this country that does not have reasonable restrictions. How is this different?"
Guns in schools have been a topic of conversation in Ann Arbor since March, and the school board has taken a firm stance against allowing guns in schools, including passing policies that ban guns ... |

More "common sense gun laws" nonsense.
And victim disarmament zones have worked so well.
More lunacy from the anti-gun liberals.
And politicians will do what their constituents want. Apparently, this woman is not well informed about what the voters really want. |

"There is overwhelming support for common sense gun law across the country," said Deb Mexicotte.
This is the lie they keep repeating with the intent of instilling the perception that it is the truth.
Pure Goebbels. |

TO REMEMBER |
| I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
