Oh, both candidates had five-point plans about almost everything, all right. Everything except guns. It amounted to a silence from lambs, afraid to say anything about guns that might offend the National Rifle Association, and the lobbyists who are no better than high-paid gun thugs. The only big politician who goes up against the NRA is Michael Bloomberg, who put up his own money to back candidates running against NRA candidates in races all across the country. |

TO REMEMBER |
We'll take one step at a time, and the first is necessarily - given the political realities - very modest. We'll have to start working again to strengthen the law, and then again to strengthen the next law and again and again. Our ultimate goal, total control of handguns, is going to take time. The first problem is to slow down production and sales. Next is to get registration. The final problem is to make possession of all handguns and ammunition (with a few exceptions) totally illegal. — Pete Shields, founder of Handgun Control, Inc., New Yorker Magazine, June 26, 1976, pg. 53 |
