"The weapon that gunman Kenneth Anderson used in a deadly shootout with police last Wednesday was an SKS assault rifle. Three people were killed, including Anderson."
"An Indiana group wants that weapon banned along with all other so-called 'assault weapons'. They pressured politicians at a news conference Tuesday to take the guns off the streets once and for all."
"The group in favor of gun control says the current ban on assault weapons has done nothing to stop the sales of keep these high-powered guns. With the 1994 ban set to run out next month they want to put more firepower into it." ... -------
KABA Note: The SKS is specifically exempted from the 1994 ban. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
