Quote of the Day

Frederick Douglass taught that literacy is the path from slavery to freedom. There are many kinds of slavery and many kinds of freedom, but reading is still the path.

Let Freedom Ring!

Arizona’s Constitution of 1912 has always held that “the right of the individual citizen to bear arms in defense of himself or the state shall not be impaired.”

Arizona’s governor a few months ago signed into law a bill restoring Arizonans’ freedom to carry firearms discreetly without a permit.  Previously, we had to ask the state for written permission, but could carry a handgun openly.  The “open carry” option sometimes scared hoplophobes.  And some of us didn’t want the bad guys to know we were armed.

Remember: When seconds count, the police are only minutes away.

Steve Parker, M.D.
