    | Some people will do anything to get their names in the news.  Even if comes at the expense of the public’s safety.  Three Washington legislators are pushing a bill that would force arenas and stadiums to allow fans to bring in weapons if they have concealed carry permits. Because adding guns to a highly charged atmosphere where alcohol already offsets common sense far too often seems like a great idea.

    | Since 'gun free' zones are the preferred targets of unhinged mass shooters, and our govt often fails at screening, it's only a matter of 'when' not 'if' shootings begin at sporting events.  Conceal carry individuals offer a 'preventive' aspect to the threat.  Of course, quality training is prerequisite. |

                      | "Let us contemplate our forefathers, and posterity, and resolve to maintain the rights bequeathed to us from the former, for the sake of the latter. The necessity of the times, more than ever, calls for our utmost circumspection, deliberation, fortitude, and perseverance. Let us remember that `if we suffer tamely a lawless attack upon our liberty, we encourage it, and involve others in our doom.' It is a very serious consideration...that millions yet unborn may be the miserable sharers of the event." --Samuel Adams, speech in Boston, 1771 |  |  |
