Mercy, mercy! After suffering in silence to a continuous string of gun letters, I can’t remain silent. In the last one we learn – again – that our elected gun-control officials have broken the Constitution and should be removed “promptly.”
This opinion is based on what the writer admits is a partial reading of the Second Amendment. The writer says “. . . which in part states, ‘The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.’ ”
Come on now, people, this is unacceptable. Despite the writer admitting that he has omitted the first clause, by always quoting the second clause, even beginning it with a capital T, gun worshippers essentially misquote the Constitution that they purport to revere. |

TO REMEMBER |
| [The American Colonies were] all democratic governments, where the power is in the hands of the people and where there is not the least difficulty or jealousy about putting arms into the hands of every man in the country. [European countries should not] be ignorant of the strength and the force of such a form of government and how strenuously and almost wonderfully people living under one have sometimes exerted themselves in defence of their rights and liberties and how fatally it has ended with many a man and many a state who have entered into quarrels, wars and contests with them. — George Mason, "Remarks on Annual Elections for the Fairfax Independent Company" in The Papers of George Mason, 1725-1792, ed Robert A. Rutland (Chapel Hill, 1970). |
