Amendment 2 (2)

//Interviewed Terry Eberly, the President of the Izaac Walton League of America York Chapter.//

Do you feel that there should be a countrywide gun restriction law?
//There should be a countrywide gun restriction law on mail order guns such as Uzis and other military weaponry. People can get guns from catalogs which is wrong.//

Do you encounter a lot of second amendment conflicts in your work or everyday life?
//No everyone in the club are law abiding citizens.//

If you could make a change to the second amendment, what would you change about it? and why would you make such a change?
//Mail order guns should be stopped. Military weaponry and black markets should be stopped. It doesn’t make sense why everyone should get punished when only the people who do bad stuff with firearms causes all the riot.//

What are your states gun laws and do you agree with them? Why?
//I am not really aware of the state gun laws. I know that at Sporting Goods stores, there is a lot of paperwork to go through and it could take up to 3 days. Everyone has to have a background check and it must be verified in Harrisburg before you can get a gun. I like this system and it should not be changed at all.//

Do you own any guns if so how many?
// Quite a few, that is all I will say. I don’t like people knowing exactly how many I have. //

What is the purpose of your club?
//It is more of an environmental club designed to keep the river, air, lakes and others clean from pollution. We are currently in a battle with the drilling upstate. //

When did you join the gun club?
//1979 //

How long have you been dealing with guns?
//I have been shooting since I was 16 years old. I came from a family heavy into hunting. //

What is your interpretation of the second amendment?
//I believe it is the right to bear arms as long as you follow all of the regulations. I see no reason why people should not be able to keep firearms and the good people should not be punished because a few people did bad things with guns. //
