GUN CARRYING PROTESTERS

GUN CARRYING PROTESTERS The Bill Of Rights, our Second Amendment, “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”. Ok this is our right, but some of these people carrying guns to the protest where the President is speaking are a little overboard. Why do they have to carry guns to a protest? Don’t these people know that they are making people nervous; they are also inciting people to possible act violent. In all my days I have not seen any protesters, protesting a Presidential speaking engagement where people are openly carrying guns. If this keeps happening God forbid something tragic might happen. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090817/ap_on_re_us/us_obama_protesters_guns LM

GANG KILLINGS ON THE RISE IN SMALL TOWN

GANG KILLINGS ON THE RISE IN SMALL TOWN It’s a shame that a town the size of Salinas Ca. with a population of 90,000 or more has 20 killings already and the year isn’t over. What are these gangs trying to beat? There record of 25 killings in 2008? Salinas needs to come up with several ways to slow down these gangs, before there up there with Richmond Ca., Oakland Ca. and Compton Ca. in homicides do to gang violence. This gang violence is out hand, I feel that if it gets worse businesses are going leave. Then what? http://www.thecalifornian.com/article/20090806/NEWS01/908060305/1002/NEWS01/Salinas-led-state-in-percentage-of-gang-linked-killings http://www.thecalifornian.com/article/20090807/NEWS01/908070304/1002/Slayings-continue-in-Salinas--teenager-is-city-s-21st-homicide-victim-of-the-year http://www.thecalifornian.com/article/20090807/NEWS01/908070302/1002/Arraignment-delayed-for-Salinas-homicide-suspects Lynn
