I read the letters section of the Oct. 18 1999 Newsweek just a few minutes ago. Under the title "Slaughter in Ft. Worth" was this drivel.
As a gun owner I was appalled to learn that George W. Bush had signed an amendment allowing a person to carry a firearms into a church and requiring the church to post a sign if it wants to ban guns. What have we come to that we would dare to defile a place of worship beacuse of the obsessive love affair Americans have with guns? If I could bring back just one life lost in Ft. Worth by surrendering ever gun I have I would gladly do so. Gun ownership and the Second Amendment are not worth the loss of our youth.
