Dear Sun,

I would appreciate if Mr. Foster (Daily Sun, Jan. 12) and others of his ilk would do two things: Please properly assess a situation before you propose new laws and  please explain how said laws would ameliorate the perceived problem.

As D.C. firearm permits are almost impossible to obtain, the only armed people at the Capitol Building were police. The only person who shot anyone was a police officer who shot an unarmed Air Force veteran.

While I’m here, I suspect that Ms. Rosand (also Jan. 12) would be also ashamed after a certain Tea Party and the subsequent armed revolution. I’m not saying that I support the minority violent elements present in D.C., the same as I don’t support the violence from the left for the past 7 months.
