Just ignore the law. Keep your gun handy in your home. No jury would convict a person
who broke the Trigger-lock law in defending his/her life, or a member of his/her family's life.

The people of the country aren't stupid, only their lawmakers.

"Did you really think that we want those laws to be observed?" said Dr. Ferris. "We *want* them broken....There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What's there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced nor objectively interpreted – and you create a nation of law-breakers – and then you cash in on guilt. Now that's the system, Mr. Rearden, that's the game, and once you understand it, you'll be much easier to deal with."

Folks should go back and re-read their Ayn Rand every five or six years.

Charlie, you got it right. I live in California, and I have loaded pistols in the living room and the bedrooms. I don't give a hoot what lifelong political hack Davis says.I had a gun pulled on me in college,and I won't get caught empty handed again!!

AND DON'T FORGET Joel Myrick!

For every child that gets accidentally hurt by a firearm, how many have been saved?

How many more would have died if Joel Myrick, Principal of the Mississippi High School where Luke Woodham opened fire, hadn't stopped him with a firearm he had in his truck at school?

Joel Myrick is a criminal. He broke federal law by having a firearm in his vehicle at school. Now tell that to the parents of the children that he saved. Luke Woodham was on his way to the Pearl Mississippi Junior High when Mr. Myrick stopped him.

Tell the parent of every child at Pearl Junior High that Joel Myrick is a criminal, and see what kind of response you get!

Mr. Joel Myrick is a living Hero, Louis "Sandy" Javelle is not.

To read about Louis "Sandy" Javelle read my FreeRepublic Post: Blood on the Hands of Massachusetts Legislators

Massachusetts and California are only safe for criminals!

I read the following on The Providence Journal Bulletin board in the Gun Control Category,

The post was Titled "I Bet This is True!":

Can I Get Some Help Here?

I was going to bed the other night when my wife told me that I had left the light on in the shed, she could see from the bedroom window. As I looked for myself, I saw that there were people in the shed taking things. I phoned the police, but they told me that no one was in the area to help at this time, but they would send someone over as soon as they were available.

I said OK, hung up, and waited one minute, then phoned the police back. "Hello. I just called you a minute ago because there were people in my shed. Well, you don't have to worry about them now cause I've shot them all." Within five minutes there were half a dozen police cars in the area, an Armed Response unit, the works. Of course, they caught the burglars red-handed.

One of the officers said: "I thought you said that you'd shot them!"

I replied with "I thought you said there was nobody available!"

I was worried when I brought the first gun into my home four short years ago that my 8 year old would be curious and hurt himself or someone else, so we had a litle talk about that gun. To my pleasant surprise, he has shown a respect and healthy fear for our rifles and to this day, I have never found any reason to distrust him.

He always asks me when he wants to "hold" the guns, and of course, I always allow him too...after, of course, he demonstrates to me that he knows how to check the chamber to insure the gun is not loaded.

Gun Locks are a substitute for BAD PARENTING, just like abortion and Ritalin are substitutes for BAD PARENTING.

Teach your children and keep your means of protection readily available.

One of the main reasons I moved from Kalifornia. FWIW my 18 year old daughter has been shooting since she was 14 and (I kid you not) can put all six rounds from my Smith round butt (4" barrel) 357 into the 10 ring at 100 yards. Last time we were at the range she poed some guy off so bad he packed up and left the range! Also she shot her first deer last year at 150 yards right in the boiler room. Daddy's very proud.
