Editor,
Regarding the letter of Feb. 17, “Get a muzzle loader and start marching,” the Second Amendment and gun control are hot, polarizing topics. Our founding fathers were very wise when writing the Bill of Rights. There are a lot of gun control advocates saying that since the 2nd Amendment was written in the days of muskets and that the authors couldn’t have foreseen the advances in weapon technology, that it shouldn’t apply to semi-automatic rifles; that these are “weapons of war” and no average citizen needs one.
