These days it’s impossible for an American citizen fortunate enough to have been born with a functioning mind not to worry about guns and the men who love them, and the innocent victims some of those gun-lovers kill. National Rifle Association spokesman Wayne LaPierre, who tends to blame school shootings on rap music, has accused the government, aided by the media, of attempting to discredit firearms enthusiasts by issuing propaganda worthy of the Nazis.

Gun owners long have spoken out for common sense; common sense dictates that the American formula for protecting individual liberty not be diluted or corrupted.
THAT is common sense. |

I am a hunter and gun owner.
Don't call gun control laws and restrictions common sense. They are anything but. They only affect law abiding citizens that aren't causing any problems. Criminals, crazies and mal contents will get guns regardless of any amount of gun laws including complete prohibition.
If you really want to reduce murder and gun crime, lock up the criminals for long periods. It is the only thing that works. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
