“The Constitution did not guarantee public safety, it guaranteed liberty”. Robert Steed, a resident of Vernon, Conn. who took three days straight off work to attend several gun control hearings in Connecticut: “Adam Lanza commits a crime, and I’m here to grovel and plead for my rights and explain to you that my firearms are kept safely?” he asked rhetorically. “I keep hearing the word ‘solution’… you’re not going to find a solution, it doesn’t exist. You can’t find a broad brush solution to evil.” Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness… nothing about public safety, mandatory health insurance or free cheese.
