If religions can have limits, why can't gun owners?
Mayo on the Side: Michael Mayo | Sun Sentinel BlogsI got a lot of feedback on my Sunday column/letter to the NRA, but in the spirit of the season I figured I'd wait until after the holidays to fire back. At the end of the column, I rhetorically asked,......Tags: Politics, Separation of Church and State, Personal Weapon Control, Interior Policy, Wikimedia Foundation, Inc.

Connecticut school massacre: Why?
Mayo on the Side: Michael Mayo | Sun Sentinel BlogsEvery gun massacre is horrible, but this seems worst of all. If the preliminary reports are true, a gunman (or perhaps gunmen?) might have massacred an entire kindergarten class at an elementary school in Connecticut. Twenty children, six adults and......Tags: Politics, Personal Weapon Control, Interior Policy, Sandy Hook Elementary School, Sandy Hook Elementary School Shooting

Here's to more chills and thrills in 2012
Mayo on the Side: Michael Mayo | Sun Sentinel BlogsA chilly burst to kick off 2012 in South Florida (I love sweater weather) and in print today I tried to bring some warming chuckles with a humorous look at some possibilities for the year ahead. A sampling: Jan. 10......Tags: Politics, Harpo Marx, Starbucks Corp., Government, National Government

Trayvon Martin death shows the perils of Stand Your Ground law
Mayo on the Side: Michael Mayo | Sun Sentinel BlogsWe've seen it before in Florida, and we'll see it again. A confrontation turns deadly, with shots fired under questionable circumstances. People wonder whether the shooter overreacted, and whether the response was disproportionate to the threat. In the...Tags: Trayvon Martin, Laws, Florida Legislature, Justice System, Crime, Law and Justice

Trayvon Martin death: How did Stand Your Ground pass Senate 39-0?
Mayo on the Side: Michael Mayo | Sun Sentinel BlogsThirty-nine yeas, zero nays. Hard to believe that such a bad bill could have been approved unanimously, but it was. When the so-called Stand Your Ground bill went to a vote in the Florida Senate on March 25, 2005, the......Tags: Politics, Trayvon Martin, Fort Lauderdale, U.S. Senate, Prosecution

Can Fort Lauderdale compel background checks at gun show?
A showdown is brewing between Fort Lauderdale and the Ohio-based company that has long held gun shows at the city-owned War Memorial Auditorium. The city has clamped down on the arms-bazaar excesses of the show, and a lawyer for Suncoast Gun Shows say...Tags: Politics, Public Officials, Father's Day, Fort Lauderdale, Government

2-Month Wait Too Long For Gun-Ban Rules
The Hartford CourantSo much has happened since April 4 that it seems like more than four weeks since Gov. Dannel P. Malloy signed the strict gun-control bill into law. We had the showdown on background checks in the U.S. Senate, and of course, the Boston Marathon bombings....Tags: Politics, Laws, Government, Personal Weapon Control, Interior Policy

NRA won't allow guns sales at Harrisburg show
So after all the spit and vinegar directed at Reed Exhibitions for not allowing modern sporting arms to be displayed at the now-canceled Eastern Sports & Outdoor Show last February in Harrisburg, the mighty National Rifle Association has taken the reins...Tags: Allentown, Federal Gun Control Legislation (2013), Lymphoma, Leukemia, Consumers

Stephen Goldstein: Think NRA was winner? Not so fast
The NRA has won the battle but lost the war. The best thing that happened to gun control is its defeat in Congress. Today's losers (Obama, Democrats, the 90 percent of Americans who support sane legislation) will be tomorrow's winners. Today's winners...Tags: U.S. House of Representatives, Tampa, Rand Paul, Politics, Barack Obama

Thankfully, There Is No Right To Own Bombs
The Hartford CourantIn the aftermath of the Boston Marathon bombings, I was thinking how thankful we, the American people, should be that the right to bear bombs was not included in the Second Amendment. If bombs were part of the Second Amendment, the National Rifle...Tags: Barack Obama, Boston Marathon Bombing (2013), Laws, Media Industry, ABC (tv network)

Washington draws the wrong lessons from Boston
Ordinary people, elected and unelected, behaved heroically last week. Unfortunately, it all happened hundreds of miles from Washington. In Boston, strangers gave clothes and shelter to shivering runners. They comforted injured spectators. They saved...Tags: Personal Weapon Control, U.S. Senate, Dan Coats, U.S. Congress, Elections
