I grew up in Wyoming where gun ownership is common and part of the culture. Guns are respected, and so is the damage they can do. So responsibility around guns is also part of the culture and taken very seriously. Here in Missouri, I believe that it is responsible gun ownership, not guns, that is under attack. Increasingly, I’ve become alarmed by the rise of radical groups from both inside and outside the state advocating reckless laws that needlessly put us all in danger. They open new, dangerous loopholes instead of closing them.

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
