License to drive not a license to kill

A memorial event was held throughout the US in commemoration of the anniversary of terrorist attack last week, which led to the destruction of the Twin Towers. I am a member of Bluefield. As with attacks on Pearl Harbor and Alamo, 9/11 terrorist attacks may become an important event in our history.

However, in the article on the back page of the Blue Sky Daily Telegraph, it is reported that the traffic accident death rate nationwide has decreased to 300,000 people. This decrease exceeded the number killed in the 9/11 case. However, in any case, the number of lost lives is still roughly equivalent to the three cities of Bluefield size.

The number of lives lost in the decade will exceed the West Virginia population. But the loss of this enormous life rarely draws people's attention as if the sun were as natural as it is rising and settling. However, the sun does not actually climb or descend nor lose its life. Driving permit must not be permission for homicide. We have set high standards for private pilots, but most people are eligible for licensed driving which may cause more damage and loss of life than light planes.

As cars are dangerous and often murdered, training and permission are necessary to have a pistol so that we need strict training and a driver's license. Most states require a certain level of training and licensing, and some people only need to hide and carry around. The standards vary widely. Based on my experience of purchasing guns in Maryland, guns have some of the country's most demanding gun laws, and the standards are too loose. The goal is to thoroughly enforce military training to give soldiers the same instinctive fear, respect, security awareness. I am trying to make armed citizens a free fortress. But armed citizens are well-trained, well-trained, citizens of "managed happiness". The idea of ​​"keeping the Constitution" - citizens should be able to carry and carry pistols without obtaining permission - there is no need for training - is insane. It obviously object to gun ownership by correlating it with dangerous and frivolous ideas.

The elderly have the right to vote for federal elections, and in most states, including California, adulthood has been lowered to 18 years old. (FC § 6502; 42 USC § 1973 bb)
