This resolution pretends to speak for all Vernon County residents, opposing any and all "common sense" gun safety laws in Vernon County. No matter that I and everyone else that I know actually support these laws. No matter that Vernon County residents showed up in the overwhelming majority to oppose this very resolution at a July committee meeting. No matter that Wisconsinites and Americans - including a majority of gun-owners - overwhelmingly support common sense gun laws. |

"No matter that . . . Americans - including a majority of gun-owners - overwhelmingly support common sense gun laws."
Repeating that lie doesn't make it true. The vast majority of gun owners don't approve of restrictions that only affect law-abiding, peaceable people, which all gun laws do - DE FACTO. Criminals don't obey laws, and they don't discriminate about which ones they violate. They don't get background checks, they don't get carry permits, they have no compunction about using guns to commit crimes, including but not limited to robbery and murder.
Stick a hose in your ear, turn the water up full blast, and pressure-wash that leftist propaganda out of your head. |

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 |
