Darcey Spendlove credits her peace of mind to the 13 guns she and her husband keep at their ranch home in this remote southwestern Utah hamlet.
That's why the 25-year-old councilwoman supported an ordinance in June requiring all townsfolk to own firearms, so they too can enjoy that sense of safety.
"It's like a security blanket...Everyone should experience the freedom of knowing you can protect yourself. It's probably the greatest right we have as Americans."

"There's been some conjecture over how many gun owners have actually registered their firearms, but Tyler Badger has got an interesting take on the issue."
"The Sexsmith resident posted a classified ad in the Herald-Tribune last week looking for guns and his phone nearly rang off the hook with calls from people looking to get rid of their firearms rather than register them." |

TO REMEMBER |
| As an individual, I believe, very strongly, that handguns should be banned and that there should be stringent, effective control of other firearms. However, as a judge, I know full well that the question of whether handguns can be sold is a political one, not an issue of products liability law, and that this is a matter for the legislatures, not the courts. The unconventional theories advanced in this case (and others) are totally without merit, a misuse of products liability laws. — Judge Buchmeyer, Patterson v. Gesellschaft, 1206 F.Supp. 1206, 1216 (N.D. Tex. 1985) |
