Federal law says people with protection orders against them are not allowed to possess guns. Yet it’s still legal in Ohio. Why? For one local family, that's a question that will haunt them the rest of their lives. Despite having a protection order against him, a young wife and mother was gunned down by her husband. An act her family says could have been prevented if Ohio followed federal guidelines. |

What happened to the Lautenberg Law -- the one that deprived anyone who'd ever looked at his/her spouse cross-eyed of all firearms? Is this a problem we have to solve AGAIN? Good grief! Are all these problems going to keep resurfacing, only to again need another law to solve??!?!?!
Oh NO!!!!!
We're all DOOMED!
DOOMED, I SAY! |

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 |
