THERE IS A BILL PENDING in the great state of arkansas, U.S.A. which would allow instructors at state colleges and universities to carry concealed weapons on campus. This, along with the bill that would allow guns to be carried into church, and arkansas is thinking about becoming very well armed indeed. So is the rest of america, even as the liberals push a ban on assault weapons.
Will public school teachers be next in line to get permit to pack? Will all public servants eventually be allowed to carry heat, then, eventually, be required to? Incrementalism can work in many different ways.
Will we all eventually be waking down the street, driving our cars, wide side arm conspicuously displayed on your gunbelt, after the fashion of the old west? Is that what we want, a well armed citizenry?
Bear in mind that most gunshoot wounds in america are friendly fire. Accidental fire, mistaken fire coming from good people. then too, there are the hiterto good people, people like you and I, who, inexplicably, suddenly whip out their handgun and use it murderously, sometimes on themselves.
It is absolutely critical that in the united states we th epeople do not allow the government to take away our guns. With equal vigor we should oppose govvernmental imposition of laws limiting the size of soft drinks, or where, and what, people can and cannot smoke.
How many of you NRA members support the legalization of marijuana? You conservatives who so desperately want freedom to cary guns and freedom from government confiscation of your money might wish to consider whether you really want government to make laws regarding sex and drugs.
Guns, abortion, drugs, pornography, let it be said about them all; they are best kept legal, and unpopular by popular demand.
