Too many young school children are being killed, or wounded, by some other children . It is the burden of our lawmakers to amend the second amendment to allay this problem. It is senseless as well as tragical that these young are killed so often. The right to carry a gun should, therefore be abolished, howsoever it should be accomplished.

Patrick Henry said ” Is life so dear and peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? As for me, give me liberty or give me death!” Thomas Jefferson said “Whenever any form of gov’t becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it.” Bo Gritz said “Giving up your guns is unconditional surrender.”
This country was founded on the principle that rights are granted by God, and not by men. Due to the fact that governments are made up entirely of men, it follows that rights cannot be granted by governments either. In the U.S.A. the people empower the gov’t to secure our god given rights, not author them.
If the people ever allow themselves to be disarmed, our system of government, and our status as a world power will be over. And, make no mistake, the propagandists will see to it that our posterity will never read about it in future history books.

Jefferson, in defending am’dt #2, like many religionists, invoke God’s name when it suits the purpose of their argument, but use other sources when it doesn’t. This man, at the death of his wife, promised that he would never marry another woman, and he kept his word. Or did he? Having many slaves, he chose one, Sally Heming, to fulfill his physical pleasures. He did this in a manner which was as close to a legal marriage, except for its legal requirements. Tom sired 5 children thru marriage to Sally, but as long as he lived those 5 were, slaves, not sons.
Previous to dying, he set his slaves free, but not until he sold some to refurbish his shrinking bank account.
What were his thoughts as he freed them? Did he suffer a bad conscience? If so, he must have been aware of that bad conscience as he used them. That, then, would have been the time to exercise his conscience.
As to gun carrying, times were so unlike today that guns were very necessary. Indians, wild animals, and many white citizens made guns necessary at that time.
All families, or most, owned horses. Why? Be-
cause they were necessary for travel. When
automobiles were inroduced the horse became a luxury which few could afford.
Like so, the gun. If it were intelligently managed
gun injuries would be much less a problem. The killings in schools alone turn us against their use.
Are we satisfied with the present rate of gun – nigs? Are you , the reader, satisfied?
Any measure which will correct this killling
would be welcomed. The 2nd am’dt does not
achieve such an improvement.
