Lawsuit Hypocrisy

RE. Ben Wright's letter 10/2/99 on the repeal of the Second Amendment. It would seem that James Hahn, the pretender to the throne of Los Angeles appears to be working on it. Hahn attempts to rationalize and justify his bias against private ownership of firearms by trotting out the usual overblown rhetorical devices involving safety and public borne expenditures to bolster support for his frivolous lawsuit. The idea of smart gun technology at the present time is a fraudulent panacea. None of this is about the truth. It is about the incremental destruction of a fundamental right laid down by our forebears, couched in legalistic jargon and "enhanced" (read: fabricated) statistics supplied by other biased and self serving organizations. Organizations such as Hand Gun Control Inc.., their offspring, the Violence Policy Center and the Journal of the American Medical Association to name a few. For those among you misguided enough to wish away your rights, I recommend either reading or watching George Orwell's Animal Farm. The analogy is clear: the Commandments are being rewritten, and the pigs are indeed in charge.
