On the first weekend of their general election campaigns, a coalition of Democratic candidates running for state and federal office huddled on a blistering street corner in Miami with their sights set on a familiar target: firearms. A spate of school shootings across the nation in recent months, and the activism that emerged from South Florida after 17 students and educators were killed at a Parkland high school on Valentine’s Day, reignited the issue of guns in America as Democrats push to flip Tallahassee and Washington. |

“These kind of gun shows is where people buy high ammunition guns, all kinds of bump stocks and big magazines, all kinds of things that we don’t want our streets to have,” Taddeo said. “And then they turn around and go into other neighborhoods and resell them. This is exactly why we don’t want this in our community.”
"high ammunition guns" and "all kinds of bump stocks?
There is no such thing as the first, and there is only one kind of the second. It's better to keep one's mouth shut & be thought a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.
“For me, it’s never been a political issue,” [Mucarsel-Powell] said. “I lost my dad to gun violence. This is a personal issue.”
...so I'll use politics to foist my opinion. Right. Got it. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
