From guns to guts. I have a new hero! To you, Mr. Ben Beers, from one man to another, from one veteran to another and from one dad to another: thank you for showing, by example, what a man with a conscience and love of country can do. For those of you not familiar with the story, Mr. Beers, after hearing of the latest mass murder at a Texas grade school, voluntarily took his own AR-15 and 9 mm handgun to the Hillsboro Police Department to be destroyed. You have my utmost thanks and respect.
Letter: Cheers for giving up guns
