Upon reading the story concerning the sentencing of a career criminal ("Allentown man sentenced in bank, car thefts") and several pages later a letter from a reader who apparently is against the Second Amendment, it is again clear why law-abiding citizens who own firearms mistrust any views or proposals to enact even more laws concerning lawful ownership of firearms.
According to the story, the gentleman being sentenced was arrested 20 times, convicted 13 times, paroled 20 times and had that parole revoked 16 times. |

TO REMEMBER |
| We'll take one step at a time, and the first is necessarily - given the political realities - very modest. We'll have to start working again to strengthen the law, and then again to strengthen the next law and again and again. Our ultimate goal, total control of handguns, is going to take time. The first problem is to slow down production and sales. Next is to get registration. The final problem is to make possession of all handguns and ammunition (with a few exceptions) totally illegal. — Pete Shields, founder of Handgun Control, Inc., New Yorker Magazine, June 26, 1976, pg. 53 |
