"Democrats suffer from the misconception that if they don't talk about guns, some gun advocates might support them. They are wrong. The true believers won't -- ever. But a vast middle ground of people in vote-rich urban and suburban areas will support gun-control candidates, especially when their opponents have toed the gun-lobby line. Those are the votes that can be won." --Joseph P. Sudbay, former Political Director for Handgun Control, Inc.

""Who the blazes does the UN think it is, trying to tell a sovereign nation under constitutional law what it can or cannot do inside its own boundaries? Its handy-dandy little U.S. world-police that is paid for by American tax dollars and in American lives? ... The way the UN is acting, it would encourage freedom-loving Americans to gather up all the weaponry they can find ... just in case the UN comes in and tries to take over...." --Dorothy Anne Seese

"Parents do a reasonably good job of making their homes safe for children, with one major exception: they don't lock their guns away where children can't get them. ... The safest way to avoid a firearm injury in the home is to remove guns from the home."

The center also suggested that peacekeepers offer cash, food vouchers, or farm tools as incentives for people to turn in weapons.

Jean Saul was at home when four men broke in, robbed her at gunpoint, tied her up, and raped her. Her husband was tied up next to her during the whole thing. "They told my husband 'We've got AIDS and we're going to rape your wife,'" Jean Saul remembers.

Now ... when she drives at night, she carries a gun. "I can carry it in my hand when I am driving. I don't feel that if I am hijacked I'd have to fiddle around for a gun. I've got it in my hand and there's no surprise."

"The Americans refused to accept any language that could halt the sale of weapons to foreign militias, citing the need to keep open the option of aiding groups fighting genocidal regimes. The United States, citing the Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, also demanded that the document be stripped of limits on the civilian ownership of guns." ~ And the UN conceeded. Imagine that!!

"The deadly standoff July 13 raises important questions about police policies that need to be addressed... This is too good of a man for this to happen to. If it can happen to Dick, it could happen to anybody. I just thank God that we have him back."

Go to this web site and get the latest on excessive force by a swat team. Pretty scary reading when you think of it happening to you. The local media had him convicted of capitol murder before he was even charged.
