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 |
| Those, who have the command of the arms in a country are masters of the state, and have it in their power to make what revolutions they please. [Thus,] there is no end to observations on the difference between the measures likely to be pursued by a minister backed by a standing army, and those of a court awed by the fear of an armed people. — Aristotle, as quoted by John Trenchard and Water Moyle, An Argument Shewing, That a Standing Army Is Inconsistent with a Free Government, and Absolutely Destructive to the Constitution of the English Monarchy [London, 1697]. |
