Look at what amendment says
I would really like someone to explain to me why, given all the discussion about gun issues, no one bothers to go back to the original work in its entirety. The 2nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution uses the phrase “well regulated militia.” What is so hard to comprehend about the concept of “well regulated,” or of a militia? Many currently define themselves as “strict constructionists,” yet they fail to use the 2nd Amendment in its entirety.
Why exclude the well regulated militia component, and only select out for emphasis the “keep and bear arms” concept. A collection of armed janitors is not a well regulated militia. Stop the insanity!

McCullough an excellent leader
I endorse the candidacy of Thomas McCullough for the 1st District City Council seat.
I know Tom McCullough primarily through my brother Wilbourne. He has been a friend of Tom’s for the past 30 years. Over these years, I have heard glowing reports about this outstanding educational and civic-minded individual.
