    | Days after school shootings in Oregon, Texas and Arizona, former San Diego Police Chief Jerry Sanders joined Rep. Scott Peters Tuesday in calling for universal background checks before guns are sold.
 
 “This is not a Republican or Democratic issue. It’s an issue that affects all of our communities every day,” said Jerry Sanders, the former police chief and mayor who now heads the San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce.

    | What a surprise. 
 A California, big city police chief, and member of Bloomberg's Mayor's Against Guns coalition wants more gun regulation.
 
 The only credential that he doesn't have is democrat.  Considering his position on gun control and other issues he is a RINO of the first order.

                      | Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms.  — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |  |  |
