Notes from the Resistance...
A Lincoln resident made his point at a City Council meeting that it's perfectly legal to carry a gun.Excellent, Mr. Tyrell. That was a brave and admirable thing you did, and you deserve our gratitude. You shouldn't have had to go it alone.
Tim Tyrrell Sr. made the point by visibly sporting his own holstered and loaded .40-caliber semiautomatic Glock at Monday's council meeting.
Fed up with increasing violence in involving children in Memphis, the city council held an emergency meeting on Wednesday to discuss possible solutions.Maybe what they ought to search for first is the proper question.
Two brothers were sentenced to 4 1/2 years in prison for stealing Sheriff Michael Hunt's gun during a rash of car break-ins in October 2004...I'm sorry, but Mike Hunt feels violated?
"Until your own family is affected by crime, you don't realize how hard it is to deal with it," said Hunt...
When a widow in her 70s heard about the provincewide gun amnesty running this month, she was reminded of an unusual weapon her husband had stashed in the attic.And now that's one less armed little old lady on the streets.
There has been a fourfold increase in the number of people murdered with guns in Scotland. The number of homicides as a result of knives is also at its highest level on record.Hmmm.
The figures make grim reading for the Executive especially as there has been a raft of legislation to tackle gun and knife crime.
The U.S. House of Representatives voted on Wednesday to overturn a recently enacted law requiring safety trigger locks on all hand guns sold in the United States.Well, yeah.
On this day in 1776, Edward Rutledge, one of South Carolina’s representatives to the Continental Congress in Philadelphia, expresses his reluctance to declare independence from Britain in a letter to the like-minded John Jay of New York.
