When John Lott Jr. comes to town in support of a bill that would allow people to arm themselves in public places, Michigan constituents and lawmakers should arm themselves with the facts.
Lott is a strong adherent of the mindset that "the only thing that will stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun." Recently Lott testified at a hearing of the Senate Judiciary Committee in support of Senate Bill 442, which would allow concealed-carry holders to carry their firearms in schools, churches, sports arenas, bars and other places where the concealed carrying of guns is now banned.

Forty-three percent of Republican voters in a recent CBS News/New York Times poll said it's "very likely" that stricter gun laws would lead to the federal government confiscating guns from lawful gun owners. Twenty-five percent said that outcome is "somewhat likely," while 31 percent said the outcome is not very likely, or not likely at all. |

The idea of arming every faculty member on school campuses is another looming national tragedy.
A semi-popular belief today is the only thing that can stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun. However, this practice only works if you can assure the good guy is actually good, right-minded or even capable of shooting a gun. Just because somebody is a teacher, doesn’t mean they should have a free pass to carry a gun. |

Federal gun laws are so lacking in terms of creating a way to keep us safe – the notion that under the federal law all Americans are not required to actually get a permit for a gun, to go through a real background check for that gun, to have a waiting period before they can acquire a gun, to go through some training before they can acquire a gun, to actually be able to state in some clear terms why is it that you have to have a gun. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every kingdom of Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any bands of regular troops that can be, on any pretense, raised in the United States. — Noah Webster in "An Examination into the Leading Principles of the Federal Constitution," 1787, in Paul Ford, ed., Pamphlets on the Constitution of the United States, at p. 56 (New York, 1888). |
