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 |
Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
