“Antigun advocates have always faced an uphill battle in this country. Americans have, to begin with, a constitutional right to gun ownership.

"Either the legion raises someone on a shield after a major success on the battlefield-and we haven't had any major battles-or we hold a ballot on the evening of June 24, at the Feast of Fortuna. That's in five days." Percy frowned. "You have a feast for tuna?”
