Will there ever be a solution to the firearms violence that has swept our country in recent years? Thousands of scholars, police, legislators and ordinary citizens have been working on ideas to reduce gun violence. But I don’t hear of many persons betting their grocery money on when the shootings will stop or even diminish. |

Get rid of all those icky guns. Yep, just look at how well that's working over in Great Britain. That evil NRA spending millions on politicians, but not a peep about the billions spent by outfits like public service unions and Planned Parenthood. Typical gun banner magic thinking that making a law that only law abiding will follow can somehow make us safe from those who think nothing of breaking every law on the books. |

The elimination of a fundamental right is not fodder for wry humor.
This guy wasted a whole page.. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
