I hadn't heard about it yet, but evidently any drug you may be on for stress, anti-depression, etc. could qualify you as a potential risk as a gun owner. <br /><br />You're not the first person who contacted me saying they plan to or have purchased their first gun after seeing what is happening.<br /><br />As I said, it's an incremental process. The latest Toomey-Manchin compromise bill seems benign, but it's a small step in the wrong direction. Gayle and I spent time with Pat Toomey and his wife prior to his becoming a Senator and he is a good man, but I'm wary of any compromise. I sent him a note today, referencing my latest post.<br /><br />I think the "shift" in your thinking makes a lot of sense. It's better to be tried by a dozen of your fellow citizens than be carried by half a dozen pall bearers.

O...Tough subject to get on the right and just side. One thing occurred today in NY state. Erie County served a resident with notice that his health under NY law was such that he was to turn in his guns. He did so, even tho he had no idea what was their reason. The latest NY law allows them to do this if a persons health is determined to be a threat to themselves or others the state can confiscate their weapons.<br />Well alright. You could make a case as to why this would be a help in preventing events like Sandy Hook. Well when the resident and his attorney contacted the County and the state, guess what? they said, oops, we made a mistake and it really wasn't you we wanted.<br /><br />They are suing the state and the county, as they should and as the government deserves. It would seem they could hardly wait to get those nasty guns away from a citizen, even if it was the wrong one.<br /><br />Based on this and the amount of weirdos and crime in our area (DFW Metroplex) I think I may just get at least one gun for protection! That is really a shift in my thinking.Malcolmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02382287257942302447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7356810570417598585.post-37997053951456562132013-04-09T11:21:15.961-07:002013-04-09T11:21:15.961-07:00Thanks, Sharon.

I've received many emails from people with positive responses and many stats that go well beyond the info in my post. Unfortunately most of the general public are uninformed.Ralph Higginshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07305894333304660639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7356810570417598585.post-6335355522342557822013-04-09T10:41:54.261-07:002013-04-09T10:41:54.261-07:00BRAVO - BRAVO

NO. But do they want to be re-electd. YES<br /><br />However, some, not a lot, but some, need help from citizens that have intelligence. <br /><br />Some of them are on our side like Doug LaMafa, and Jim Nelson.<br /><br />Sitting still does nothing. But remember, it is beter to try and fail, than to never try at all. <br /><br />Ralph, I think what you have written, including the quotes, says what many feel, and needs to be heard.<br /><br />My Hat off to YOU. BRAVO<br /><br />Sharon Stonenoreply@blogger.com
