Smith denied that her eventual aim was to ban all knives. However, the sophomore congresswoman, who won office as a Second Amendment purist, previously voted for the Lautenberg Amendment to remove guns from the hands of anyone who may ever have committed a violent misdemeanor, even if the act took place 20 or 30 years in the past. She has resisted repeated pleas by constituents to co-sponsor a repeal of that law. Smith is also on record as an ardent supporter of school-zone gun bans and increased funding for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms. Sarah Whiner, a spokesperson for Kitchen Knife Control, Inc. announced that her organization will immediately begin a public awareness campaign to educate people about the dangers of kitchen knife violence.
People begin using knives as children, and soon they're doing disgusting things like carving steaks.
It's just a small step from there to picking up a kitchen knife and using it against one's spouse or sibling, or even complete strangers on the street, including innocent children. The excuse that knives have so-called legitimate domestic uses is not enough. The information about Congresswoman Smith's anti-gun votes is fact, not fiction. If your congresscritter supports any substitute bill or refuses to support the Chenoweth bill, he or she is supporting the agenda of the gun- banners. Distribute at will.
