The NRA has become a promotional tool of gun manufacturers. Their business plan calling for the selling of more guns is not the way to protect schoolkids and teachers as they study, learn and grow. In less than five minutes, eight boys and 12 girls, all either 6 or 7 years old, along with six adults died in the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre. The NRA tells us that in the first 30 seconds of confusion some adult can recognize a mass shooter is in the building, unlock a safe storing a gun, find the bullets stored in a different location, run out into the hall and shoot the gunman dead. That would make a great ad for gun manufacturers but is far removed from reality. |

| Except that there is no constitutionally enumerated authority to do that. |

TO REMEMBER |
| As civil rulers, not having their duty to the people before them, may attempt to tyrannize, and as the military forces which must be occasionally raised to defend our country, might pervert their power to the injury of their fellow citizens, the people are confirmed by the article in their right to keep and bear their private arms. — Tench Coxe in `Remarks on the First Part of the Amendments to the Federal Constitution' under the Pseudonym "A Pennsylvanian" in the Philadelphia Federal Gazette, June 18, 1789 at 2 col. 1. |
