These students are being told that stricter gun control laws will somehow make them safer. With over 22,000 federal, state, and local gun laws currently on the books that would appear to be a blatant lie. And should they somehow manage to eliminate most if not all of the 400 million firearms estimated to be in private hands, what then? Peace and safety such as we see in Great Britain where their violent crime rate is only five times greater than ours. And cities such as London with a murder rate only slightly higher than New York City. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
[The American Colonies were] all democratic governments, where the power is in the hands of the people and where there is not the least difficulty or jealousy about putting arms into the hands of every man in the country. [European countries should not] be ignorant of the strength and the force of such a form of government and how strenuously and almost wonderfully people living under one have sometimes exerted themselves in defence of their rights and liberties and how fatally it has ended with many a man and many a state who have entered into quarrels, wars and contests with them. — George Mason, "Remarks on Annual Elections for the Fairfax Independent Company" in The Papers of George Mason, 1725-1792, ed Robert A. Rutland (Chapel Hill, 1970). |
