Federal law says people with protection orders against them are not allowed to possess guns. Yet it’s still legal in Ohio. Why? For one local family, that's a question that will haunt them the rest of their lives. Despite having a protection order against him, a young wife and mother was gunned down by her husband. An act her family says could have been prevented if Ohio followed federal guidelines. |

What happened to the Lautenberg Law -- the one that deprived anyone who'd ever looked at his/her spouse cross-eyed of all firearms? Is this a problem we have to solve AGAIN? Good grief! Are all these problems going to keep resurfacing, only to again need another law to solve??!?!?!
Oh NO!!!!!
We're all DOOMED!
DOOMED, I SAY! |

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 |
