Sensible Gun Legislation,
Here were are again listening to a full round of calls from the left for sensible gun legislation.
How many laws are on the books today controlling the ownership and uses of guns a right which per the 2[SUP]nd[/SUP] amendment “shall not be infringed”?
I know, to many today that is part of an antiquated document or a living document but consider this, while the 2[SUP]nd[/SUP] amendment has been under attack for 40 years or more the First Amendment is coming under attack now, as is the Fourth which has been nearly eradicated by the Patriot Act.
When we give up any of the rights guaranteed by the constitution and bill of rights we give them up for good and we should realize that it makes the others more vulnerable. States rights are nearly gone, given up by the states who willingly send money to the federal government which wastes much of it then reallocates it back to the states in a manner that controls state activities and services. We can no longer be assured or any reasonable expectation to privacy, formerly right to privacy. We no longer have an absolute right to assembly or freedom of speech, or freedom of the press, government is quickly encroaching on our freedom or religion and replacing it with a freedom from religion.
The only thing that has so far saved the Second Amendment is the actions of the NRA and a large group of Americans who actually read the constitution and studied history and know what happens withing 20 years in every country where gun control is enacted. i.e. China, Germany, Russia, Even ISIS wants to take guns away from the citizens so that only they will have weapons.
Here’s a final idea, if you don’t like having guns around then spend your time and money in those gun free zones, also known as sitting duck zones.
When guns are outlawed I will be an outlaw.

This is my latest submission to the Star, I of course don't expect they will even read it but you have to try.
