Inspired by the most recent occurrence in an endless array of mass shootings – this one at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla. — students across the United States recently walked out of their classrooms in a peaceful and organized protest against the status quo in regulation of firearms. Their courage has churned once more the national dialogue surrounding gun control. Much verbiage, some of it even longer than 140 characters, has already been spilt by politicians, parents, policy advisors, special interests, teachers and other concerned citizens. |

Double-talking, misguided idiocy.
Follow this, pastor: The right to life is endowed by God. The right to defend that life is, then, endowed by God. The right to use the tools of our innate creativity to devise the most effective means to exercise those rights is endowed by God. Ergo, the right to use those means to use those means to that effect is also endowed by God.
It ain't rocket science - it is linear, straight-line logic. |

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 |
