One local faith leader joined over 60 other faith leaders across Arkansas in signing and submitting a letter as Arkansas Faith Against “Stand Your Ground,” to Governor Asa Hutchinson and members of the Arkansas Legislature this week advocating against the passage of bill SB24 or the Stand Your Ground defense bill.
The Arkansas State Senate passed a ‘Stand Your Ground’ bill, which removed a duty to retreat from an attacker if possible and expanded a current self-defence law to apply to areas outside one’s property, on Jan. 19. |

| A violent felon killed in flagrante delicto is not a "senseless loss of life," it is eminently sensible. |

TO REMEMBER |
| As an individual, I believe, very strongly, that handguns should be banned and that there should be stringent, effective control of other firearms. However, as a judge, I know full well that the question of whether handguns can be sold is a political one, not an issue of products liability law, and that this is a matter for the legislatures, not the courts. The unconventional theories advanced in this case (and others) are totally without merit, a misuse of products liability laws. — Judge Buchmeyer, Patterson v. Gesellschaft, 1206 F.Supp. 1206, 1216 (N.D. Tex. 1985) |
