It shouldn’t be hard to exercise a Constitutional right. You’d think someone whose job depends on the First Amendment would understand that.

…many foreigners also don’t understand why our First Amendment allows blasphemy.
Which is just as irrelevant to how we run our country as this is:

In an attempt to improve school safety in the wake of the Newtown school killings, Homestead High School in Mequon is telling students not to open exterior doors for anyone during school hours.
Because a man with a gun is no match for a glass door.

I think this blog post from a woman who was NOT killed in an episode of domestic violence is particularly apt considering the shooting at the Azana Salon here in Milwaukee:
Do you know what kept me safe? Not some piece of paper. Not a judge tut tutting at him and shaking his/her finger and telling him to leave me alone. Not the police, best cialis cheap who, there after all, would only be able to respond once he had caused me harm. No, what kept me safe was my Glock. What kept me safe was my Glock and the fact that he knew I had both the ability and the will to empty a clip into his chest if he made good on his statements that if I did not come back, I would not see the next week. He never tried to do any of the things he screamed he would because he knew that not only would I defend myself but that I could. My Ex was nearly a foot taller than me and, at the time, had about 150 pounds on me. If he had been able to get close enough to me to harm me, there were very few options I had to protect myself. But with my Glock, well, I would be able to stop him before he got that close. I am alive today because he knew that if he tried to make that otherwise, there was a better than even chance he would be the one lying there in a pool of blood instead of me.

He didn’t care that the restraining order prohibited him from having weapons. He ignored that, too.
And, now, it turns out he ignored one more law, as well:
Just another sign that signs don’t stop bullets.

Even though there’s absolutely no evidence that limiting gun magazines to 10 rounds would have prevented the shootings in Oak Creek, The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel is using the occasion to insist that we do just that.
Rather than argue that forcing a shooter to reload more often won’t really slow them down, I’ll just let you see for yourself:

The person who wrote this used to be a criminal prosecutor:
I am staunchly opposed to concealed carry because, in my opinion, only overly suspicious or dangerous people feel the need to carry concealed guns in the normal course of daily life.
