Mercy, mercy! After suffering in silence to a continuous string of gun letters, I can’t remain silent. In the last one we learn – again – that our elected gun-control officials have broken the Constitution and should be removed “promptly.”
This opinion is based on what the writer admits is a partial reading of the Second Amendment. The writer says “. . . which in part states, ‘The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.’ ”
Come on now, people, this is unacceptable. Despite the writer admitting that he has omitted the first clause, by always quoting the second clause, even beginning it with a capital T, gun worshippers essentially misquote the Constitution that they purport to revere. |

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 |
