This is a very good opinion piece I would like to share via Facebook and email but I see no easy way to do this.

Illogical and delusional. It's the criminals. Depriving the rights of law abiding folks will not justify the inability to control criminals. Just more feel good. |

"[W]hen an intruder comes through your door and your self defense weapon is inside a locked storage container; has a trigger lock on it; and the ammunition is, by law, stored in a separate locked container, the use of that gun for immediate self defense and protection of your property is totally denied to you."
It's already been held unconstitutional, so how can these yahoos continue to defy the law with impunity?
“Held:
“3) …the requirement that any lawful firearm in the home be disassembled or bound by a trigger lock makes it impossible for citizens to use arms for the core lawful purpose of self-defense and is hence unconstitutional.” - D.C. v. Heller (2008) |

QUOTES
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 |
