"Events this month are all too current and close to our community. We need to stop talking about gun control and start using the term "Responsible Gun Ownership". We are NOT asking the hunter to give up his rifle or the camper the pistol they keep nor are we asking a person who uses a gun at a range for target practice to stop.
We are saying that like 90% of Americans we believe in Responsible Gun Ownership which means full background checks for all sales, a return of the Brady Bill (which restricted the sale of assault weapons and the ammunition used with them), and the restriction of sale of firearms to people with mental illnesses or persons on the Do Not Fly List.
