[QUOTE]Originally posted by First of Two: [QB] Not 'gave'. Inherent. Say it with me again.. in-her-ent. More recent? Okay. William Clay, US House of Representatives, May 8, 1993, St. Louis Post Dispatch: "We need much stricter gun control and eventually we should bar ownership of handguns except in a few cases." Senator Dianne Feinstein, February 5, 1995, CBS's 60 Minutes: "If I could have gotten another 51 votes in the Senate for an outright ban, picking up everyone of them, Mr. and Mrs. America, turn them all in, I would have done that. But I could not do that; the votes were not there." "Banning guns addresses a fundamental right of Americans to feel safe." U.S. Senator Diane Feinstein, quoted by AP, 11/18/93 "My bill ... establishes a 6-month grace period for the turning in of all handguns." U.S. Representative Major Owens, Congressional Record, 11/10/93 "Gun registration is not enough." Attorney General Janet Reno, December 10,1993 (Associated Press) "We can't be so fixated on our desire to preserve the rights of ordinary Americans . . . ." William J. Clinton, USA Today, p. 2A, Mar. 11, 1993. "The Constitution is a radical document... it is the job of the government to rein in people's rights." William J Clinton on MTV - 1992 I shortly will introduce legislation banning the sale, manufacture or possession of handguns (with exceptions for law enforcement and licensed target clubs). . . . It is time to act. We cannot go on like this. Ban them! Sen. John H. Chafee (R.-R.I.), In View of Handguns' Effects, There's Only One Answer: A Ban, Minneapolis Star Tribune, June 15, 1992, (a Republican idiot, just to show I'm not biased!) And this one, just to show he's an idiot: Bill Clinton, March 9, 2000, Washington Post: "I'm not at all sure that even a callous, irresponsible drug dealer with a 6-year-old in the house wouldn't put a child trigger lock on a gun." and to show He's not... "Among the many misdeeds of the British rule in India, history will look upon the act of depriving a whole nation of arms, as the blackest." Mahatma Gandhi And one last thought, for those who think that people who want to own guns should be only in the military or the police... "Germans who wish to use firearms should join the SS or the SA -- ordinary citizens don't need guns, as their having guns doesn't serve the state." --Heinrich Himmler. [/QB][/QUOTE]
