| Message | We maintain the option in the very, very rare event these very weapons are needed in the defense of this nation. Without them, we are at the mercy of those who do have them. National sovereignty must be preserved and we will vote no on this ban, which opens up the door and hinders national security. The MLP agree with the PSFA on this one. NO. |
