Speaking of copycat legislation: The worst NRA desire of this legislative session — adding Arkansas to the list of states with dangerous "stand your ground" laws — isn't dead yet. Another run to pass it, potentially with the acquiescence of a former foe, is on the agenda for the legislature's final week. The Tweet from Sen. Bob Ballinger is no idle threat. Also, Sen. Trent Garner (R-El Dorado), the angriest gun advocate, is growing more excitable by the day in hopes of resurrecting the bill that eliminates any need to retreat in face of danger. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every kingdom of Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any bands of regular troops that can be, on any pretense, raised in the United States. — Noah Webster in "An Examination into the Leading Principles of the Federal Constitution," 1787, in Paul Ford, ed., Pamphlets on the Constitution of the United States, at p. 56 (New York, 1888). |
