Letter to the editor: We need background checks and ban on military-type guns
The U.S. Constitution on guns:
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
The shooter who murdered 19 children and two teachers was not a member of a well-regulated militia.
I pray there will be large protests in support of gun control across the U.S.
Ninety percent of Americans support requiring background checks and 65% a ban on military-type guns.
