Therefore, gun so-call- ed controls are nothing more than people controls. When our Founding Fathers wrote the amendment to the Constitution which said, The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed they did so to protect the rights of individuals. Our modern-da- y statesmen want to take away that right. They should be reminded that gun ownership is a right, not a privilege and is so acknowledged by the Bill of Rights. If they are working to violate our rights they should be voted out by the people and denied the privilege of holding office. Mark Andersons opponent, incumbent Sherman P. Lloyd, has favored controls on handguns in the past. In a telephone conversa-tio- n -- today with the Utah Independent Mr. Lloyd said he had not read the language of the present bill which is in the Senate although he assumed he would be opposed to it. Lloyd has expressed his belief in the past that handguns should be controlled by the government. He indicated today that he is not opposed to restricting the sale of guns by mail.
