 DEMOCRAT SULLIVAN HAILS SUPREME COURT GUN RULING
 
Joseph P. Sullivan, of Albany, Democratic candidate for Congress, 21st
District, N.Y., hailed today's U.S. Supreme Court ruling upholding the
constitutional right of law abiding citizens to keep guns in their homes
for self-defense.
 
Gang related gun violence has escalated rapidly in urban places like
Albany, Schenectady and Troy. It is only a matter of time until this trend
impacts the suburbs of these cities, Sullivan said.
 
It is imperative that law abiding citizens are able to bear arms to protect
themselves, their families, their homes and property, particularly in the
age of terrorism where gangbangers and other anti-social malcontents
are the  likely domestic allies of the foreign terrorists, who seek to destroy
us and our way of life, said Sullivan.
 
Sullivan reminds voters that, while oil and the economy have center stage
now, we must remember that our nation is under an elevated or significant
risk of terror attack(s) warning. When, not if, those attacks, come,  oil won't
be available at any price, and the economy will falter.
 
Having arms will enable law abiding citizens to survive the ensuing urban
chaos and civil disorder which will follow. Sullivan said.
