Salisbury officials are considering a ban on toys and BB guns that look like real weapons. They feel this will aid in preventing the type of shootings that have taken place across the country. Officials met today at Salisbury city hall to address a number of issues including a ban on replica guns to protect children. There have been a number of instances where police officers have approached children and they have appeared to have a real gun which resulted in the child being wounded, sometimes fatally.

I have never heard of a problem with replica guns except for miscreants in democratic controlled cities.
Make replica guns illegal and they will use real guns instead. This is another example where the guns are not the problem. It is the gang mentality and lack of fathers that is the problem.
I would suggest that they are better off allowing the replica guns. That way it is only the miscreants that are harmed. |

1. Teach your kids not to 'shoot' at strangers. 2. Teach your cops not to murder people who aren't threatening to murder anybody else. 3. Problem solved. |

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 |
