Town Talk

A forum for Princeton residents to express opinions about local and national issues

Question of the Week:

“Has your view on the availability of guns changed, given the recent shooting in Arizona?”

 

“No, I’m from New York City and the availability of guns is pretty much negligible.”

Dash Adam, student at Princeton University


“No, it was an unfortunate incident, I still think that until something changes, people still have the constitutional right to bear arms.”

Paul Oliu, Skillman


“I was never in favor of loose gun laws, I see no reason for people to have large volumes of ammunition clips and assault weapons. They should be taken away from those who shouldn’t have them.”

Ray Makwinski, Belle Mead

 

“Police and military should have guns. I don’t think that there is any reason for people to have those kinds of weapons or collect them. I don’t think it’s a necessity or a right to have them. You can’t go hunting with an assault weapon.”

Candice Quigley and Garett Pauley, Bucks County, Pa.


“I think Arizona should have the same strict guidelines as the State of New Jersey when it comes to firearms.”

Chris Torres, Lawrenceville


“It has changed dramatically, especially between the violence and guns. There is gang activity around where I live.“

Cliff Allen, Ewing
