“My guess [is] . . . that the great majority of Americans are saying they favor gun control when they really mean gun banishment. . . . I think the country has long been ready to restrict the use of guns, except for hunting rifles and shotguns, and now I think we're prepared to get rid of the damned things entirely - the handguns, the semis and the automatics.” ThinkingMeanLongCountryUseReadyGunMajorityPreparedFavorsHuntingGun ControlReally MeanRiflesHandgunsShotgunsBanishmentHandgun BanGun Ban Author:Roger Rosenblatt

“Get rid of the guns. We had the Second Amendment that said you have the right to bear arms. I haven't seen the British really coming by my house looking for it. And besides, the right to bear arms is not an absolute right anyway, as New York's Sullivan Law proves. We talk about ourselves as a violent society, and some of that is right and some of it is claptrap. But I think if you took away the guns, and I mean really take away the guns, not what Congress is doing now, you would see that violent society diminish considerably.” IfsThinkingMeanSaidLawHouseHavensNew YorkArmsBearsProveGunAbsolutesCongressBritishViolentAmendmentsDiminishSecond AmendmentRight To Bear Arms Author:Roger Rosenblatt
