A Little Bit of “Sunshine”

By now you’ve no doubt heard about the “Million Mom” who was arrested for having an “illegal” gun.

She says it was her son’s, and she just wrapped it up and left it in a drawer because she didn’t know what to do with it.

Claire Wolfe quotes Rich Lucibella: “If she doesn't know what to do with a gun in her own home, HOW ON EARTH can she purport to know what I should do with mine?”

It’s true. The gun grabbers have always made me recall that powerful and defiant promise from folk singer Jonathan Edwards’ 1972 hit “Sunshine”:

He can't even run his own life
I'll be damned if he'll run mine...


I’ll be damned if any of them will.
