A.C.'s parents would not let him shoot a rifle. So, at age 17, two months after finishing high school, he joined the U.S. Marine Corps, where he regularly shot an M16 rifle, a staple of America's military.
A.C., who requested that VOA not use his name, is now in his 25th year with a major police department in Southern California. He's also been a firearms instructor for 20 years. For him, as for millions of Americans, guns are a passion. |

[T]he Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution enshrines the right to gun ownership as part of a "well regulated Militia."'
And there it is, the BIG LIE.
Nevermind that D.C. v. Heller SPECIFICALLY debunked that malignant falsehood.
The leftist MSM morons ignore it, because, well, they ARE morons. It goes with the territory. |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
