8/22/18: As far as guns are concerned, I felt that the gun legislation — introduced into a state which has virtually no gun violence — went too far. The bills were heavily funded by outsiders, presumably because Vermont is often cited as the state with little regulation AND a lack of gun violence, something that goes against the dominant narrative. If I felt the legislation would truly make us and our children safer, I would have been behind it in a heartbeat. The new gun
legislation does nothing to address the underlying issues that lead to violence. Remove the guns and the violence will mutate: acid, knives, cars and bombs, for example, as we have seen in other countries. When will we begin to have the harder discussion of how we got into this mess to begin with and address the root causes of violence? We need to actively take measures to protect school children now, something that the Gun Owners of Vermont are engaged in as
we approach the beginning of another school year. Source #1 |
