Scott fitzgerald called this side of paradise. About life there princeton in it is absolutely a magical book for me. I cannot even read two smell. Cannot read even two paragraphs now. But at the time it was magical i finished it just as the train pulled into the station. Princeton is as cute as a button.

My shoulder and any president that puts his hand on your shoulder gets your attention. Reagan was one of those historic figures. He said look it took us half a century to get into this mess. I have been the first seven years. Maybe you guys will have to do the heavy lifting on your own later. This is particularly special to me because so many people in this room have been a part of the process of my writing the book. I mean, everybody. Im looking around and seeing people who counseled me through the book proposal writing process and encouraged me when i thought i could never get it done, friends who called me up to find out about how the book was doing, my family, husbands here, so many people here who basically help me get a book done, and so its really awesome to be sitting here tonight in a room full of people who have supported me along the way.

Straw purchasers buy the gun there and they end up in the hands of criminals in the city of chicago. We have to put an end to this im going to ask a question to the panelists. Mr. Lapierre, i ran into some of your members in illinois and they tell me, you cannot get the Second Amendment. It is not just about hunting. It is not just about sports. It is not just about shooting targets. It is not just about defending ourselves from criminals, as ms. Trotter testified. We need the ability to protect ourselves from our governments. From our government, from the police, if they knock on our doors and we need to fight back. Do you agree with that point of view .
