The remaining millions of responsible Americans should not have their rights infringed on, simply because someone did not show proper discipline when exercising the same right. They only thing I ask is that before you fight to take away any freedom that you carefully look at both sides of the issue, and ask yourself, if the shoe was on the other foot would you still believe in your cause."
