I am not a gun owner but am a supporter of the Second Amendment. However, it is impossible to ignore the following statistics. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), there were 32,383 fatalities and 73,505 injuries related to firearms in 2013. There is clearly room for improvement if a right we possess unnecessarily leads to injury or death in over 100,000 Americans annually. |

TO REMEMBER |
| For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
