I will say this much for the former Governor Foster of Louisiana. Back in 2002, when Derek Todd Lee, the I-10 serial killer was active, he acknowledged the state could not always be there, and advised the women of the state, “You have the right to get a gun permit. Learn to use it.”
“You have the right to get a gun permit.”
If you have to get a permit, your right has been taken away. Sad, because people don’t even notice the fact that their right was abdicated already.
