A series of gun bills are working their way through the state legislature that could open some previously restrict areas.
The first bill, Senate File 116, would allow gun owners to keep their firearms in their vehicles while dropping off children and items in a school parking lot.
Firearms would be prohibited anywhere outside of the vehicle while on campus. Supporter said this bill would make thing easier for gun owners, as they would not have to make extra trips to put away their firearms while they visited the campus. |

What is so difficult to understand?
The government cannot universally restrict a fundamental right based upon an assumption of what a random individual might do.
That very idea is nutz. |

QUOTES
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 |
