Mercy, mercy! After suffering in silence to a continuous string of gun letters, I can’t remain silent. In the last one we learn – again – that our elected gun-control officials have broken the Constitution and should be removed “promptly.”
This opinion is based on what the writer admits is a partial reading of the Second Amendment. The writer says “. . . which in part states, ‘The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.’ ”
Come on now, people, this is unacceptable. Despite the writer admitting that he has omitted the first clause, by always quoting the second clause, even beginning it with a capital T, gun worshippers essentially misquote the Constitution that they purport to revere. |

QUOTES
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 |
