Missouri lawmakers passed yet another dangerous pro-gun law this year, daring Gov. Jay Nixon to veto it.
And he should do that, because this one would allow people to carry a concealed weapon — with no training and no permit.
Jackson County Prosecutor Jean Peters Baker correctly says that’s preposterous.
“You must have training” to properly handle a gun that can kill others, she said in a recent interview.
Yes, you do, but that’s never been the mantra of the Missouri lawmakers who think the Second Amendment should allow people to carry a firearm anytime they want and almost anywhere. |

That it works in many other states is evidence to the contrary. Of course, Mo. residents may not be as trustworthy. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
