We are not a police state, we are a land of the free

WE ARE NOT A POLICE STATE, WE ARE A LAND OF THE FREE

Guns don't kill people, but the deranged individuals who have the guns do. Do we need them on the road?

To offset the drunk drivers, we don't put more drunk drivers on the road; we strip their licenses and privileges to drive to protect fellow Americans. Guns are no different. If one is mentally not qualified, strip the gun! Americans are not against guns, but certainly against automatic weapons that kill 26 people in a few minutes.

The safety of Americans is the prime role of Government, and arming the teachers, day cares and churches is not, that is the Guns Sales people's job for a commission. We are not a Goddamned police state, we are a land of the free and we need to live and breathe freely without fear of the other.

Gun Control and Colorado Shootings

Thank God, the killer is caught identified as James Holmes, 24, in the deadly mass shooting at Aurora, Colorado, Movie Theater. He killed 12 and wounded nearly 50 - their fault? None. His fault? Irresponsibility.

The NRA says guns don't kill people, and that is true. Indeed it is the loonies that kill people. I am with NRA and we should have the freedom to bear arms, however, safety of other citizens must be guarded as well.

It can be done by doing similar things like auto insurance requirement to drive a vehicle, it is not a regulation, but safety of the public and protection of the innocent. We also have a strong no drink and drive policy, and I don't see why we don't focus on no putting some licensing and insurance requirements.

NRA needs to take this up and work on self regulating the purchase of guns.

1. Let there be a criminal check on gun buyers
2. Let there be a licensing requirement
3. Renew the license annually.
4. Training, let there be intensive training, like the martial arts.

The funds from licensing can to go towards education. When you buy a motor cycle, you have to go through the training for safety. NRA must seriously consider this proposal.

oncerned by the divisiveness, he saw the need to bring Americans together and founded America Together Foundation committed to building a cohesive America, indeed it is in response to ACT America which is bent on pitching one American against the other. We will be holding series of educational programs, conferences and workshops to address the issues that divide us such as Civil Right, GLBT, Quraan, Abortion, anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, Racial Profiling and Stereotyping.

The Annual Unity Day USA is in its 7th year now, it is a purposeful event to bring Americans together, on this Unity Day, we the people of the United States of America of every faith, race, ethnicity, culture and background will gather to express our commitment to co-existence, unity, prosperity and wellbeing of our nation.

Thanksgiving Celebration is in its 15th year showcasing cultural diversity.

The 5th Annual Reflections on Holocaust and Genocides is to learn and to acknowledge and reflect upon the terrible things we have inflicted upon each other and commit to avert such tragedies. Through this event non-Jewish people have consciously learned about Holocaust for the first time, it was also for the first time that people of 14 faiths came together to join in to commemorate the Holocaust that commemorated within the Jewish Community for years. They are not alone anymore in their anguish, we are all in it together with them, and it is a Muslim initiative to effect a positive change.

The programs, seminars and workshops conducted by the Foundation for Pluralism have become a part of the America Together Foundation. While the Foundation for Pluralism continues championing the idea of co-existence through respecting and accepting the otherness of other, the commitment to nurturing the pluralistic ideals embedded in Islam through the World Muslim Congress continues.
