We tell ourselves this with every tragedy linked to gun violence: There are people who should not have access to firearms. The struggle comes in keeping guns and other firearms out of the hands of those who shouldn�t have them without infringing harshly on the rights of responsible people to own them. But the type of weapon and their potential lethality also matters.

We�re not sure much would surprise us if we could share candid reflections with fellow Americans on the events of Sept. 11, 2001. We suspect that private thoughts from so varied a people on such a dreadful anniversary could be eerily similar, wildly divergent, or a sour colloid somewhere in between. Any of the possibilities seem to us entirely explicable.

The award-winning playwright E.M. Lewis grew up in rural Oregon, surrounded by guns. There were shotguns by the back door as protection against an intruder, because police were an hour away. She learned to shoot on a date with her husband-to-be. �I own a gun,� she writes in her autobiographical play, �The Gun Show.� �Where I come from, it�s the kind of present guys give their women folk after they�ve been going out for a while: paper, cotton, leather, linen, automatic handguns.�

Gun grabbers are camouflaging sinister plans with slick catchphrases�hoping you�ll barely notice when they pickpocket your pistol. Hillary Clinton is quietly building a massive gun grabber army. It�s up to you to halt her momentum. Gun grabbers �die hard� because they insist on believing the same anti-gun theories even after encountering facts disproving their theories. They also die hard because it�s nearly impossible to defeat them. Which means, we must try harder.
