Much has been said and little done about acts of mass murder by people using guns. In the wake of the latest deaths and what seems to be an unending string of carnage and tragedy, it is time for Rhode Island lawmakers to take some steps.
They can start by following through on recent votes and passing “red flag” legislation that, while providing due process protections, gives the police the authority to take guns away from people who clearly pose a threat to the public of committing violence. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
By calling attention to a well-regulated militia for the security of the Nation, and the right of each citizen to keep and bear arms, our Founding Fathers recognized the essentially civilian nature of our economy. Although it is extremely unlikely that the fears of governmental tyranny, which gave rise to the second amendment, will ever be a major danger to our Nation, the amendment still remains an important declaration of our basic military-civilian relationships, in which every citizen must be ready to participate in the defense of the country. For that reason I believe the second amendment will always be important. --JOHN F. KENNEDY |
