European Stars And Stripes (Newspaper) - June 12, 1988, Darmstadt, Hesse Sunday. June 12, 1988 the stars stripes Ann Landers dear Ann Landers 1 am looking at an associated press Story cannot believe what i am seeing. There is a Pic Ture at a Model wearing a hat with a big Bow on it. Concealed in the Bow is a Small pistol. The woman it says dressed to kill this is one of the featured numbers in the Bing bang Boom gun show. The purpose is to at tract women 10 the gun Market said promoter Ted Walker spokesman for the Shotgun news a Nebraska Trade Magazine Tor gun enthusiasts. What we Are trying to do is show the contemporary woman that she can carry a concealed weapon still took Good Walker said. Cindy Mccall modelled several lines of handbags that hid a pistol in secret compartments. All you need to do is slip your hand through the velcro panel in he Back of the purse grab the trigger blast. The fashion show was narrated by Chariene Meriedy who described a horizontal shoulder Holster As the perfect accessory for the businesswoman of the 80s." As if our country in t in bad enough shape with All the killing going on we now have fashion shows to encourage women to carry concealed weapons. These people need to have their Heads examined. Care to comment Greensburg pa., Reader dear greens arc. Under How Chic. A preview of what the Well dressed woman will Wear Al her next homicide. Can Yon stand it what fit our legislators doing when All this nonsense is going on i m afraid 1 know the answer. They Are being wooed by the National Rifle association which would lore la see plastic guns legalized. And the Era my friends is aiming the richest most powerful groups in the nation s capital. I Pecl Fuller suggest ladies Thil you Wear a smartly tailored Bullet proof Vest under your jacket because some of thaw folks thai you shoot at Are going to shoot Back they probably have had a lot More experience with guns than you. Dear Ann Landers the major complaint of women who write to you seems to be cheating husbands. How often do you receive tetters about cheating wives my last wife cheated on me became pregnant by her married co worker expected me to stay with her. I kicked her out. Her married Lover stayed married women get by with cheating because they Are better Al lying playing games. Also women Are shrewder than men. Married women who cheat often select a married Man because he does not pose As great a threat to her marriage. I suggest that married men investigate unexplained absences. Question unexplained expenses. Be Alert to changes in your wife s hairstyle notice if she pays More attention to personal grooming. Does she Sud Denly have new bras panties nighties has she started to Wear makeup when she goes Bowling or to a Bridge game with the girls get Wilh it. She s probably adding a Little spice to her life. I know what i m talking about because it happened to me. Too late smart in Saginaw dear Sag tills la smart tit you sound like the Booby prize at a Skunk Rusk. Of course some wives cheat but to be so Sai Pkim is to invite duplicity. I Iii Gesl that you forget marriage Buster get a Job As � private Eye. Page 11 tetters the rights we enjoy in a democracy in response to a recent letter in the stars stripes my family too has a Long tradition of military service on behalf of our nation. We have a great Uncle who served with the marines in ww1, a Grandfather who was in the army air corps in Wii. My father served Wilh the marines in Korea. I be spent 11-plus Yean in the service six marines five Navy. Out of five other Brothers Sisters four have served honorable in uniform. My brother in Law is a career Marine 18 Yea Sand i have a whole slew of cousins uncles who have served in uniform including one Uncle who was fighting in Cambodia while our politicians were denying we were there. But let me not Stop there i also have two cousins who have served in the peace corps. So you see your family is not unique in being Able to claim service to country. I Don t advocate burning flags or bibles. How Ever 1 Don t equate one with the other. Love of god does not necessarily go hand in hand with love of country. Not All americans were bom into Christian families some who were May have changed in their beliefs. I am agnostic yet i respect the rights of others la have their religious viewpoints. 1 even Toler ate those in our society who desire to suppress the Freedom of expression rights of others by censoring written materials burning books records la Beling protesters Asun american. It is a citizen s duty to express an opinion. Patriots do not sit quietly while politicians decide their Fate la is our right to question those in office. Ii is the responsibility of every american to not Only understand the political mechanisms of our society but also to take an Active role in the process. Questioning decisions by local National leaders is not in american. Blind unquestioning obedience is. Voting letter writing to influence decisions made by our leaders sometimes is just not enough to gel the Job done. Read the Constitution particularly the first amendment. One sees that we have the reformed complainer i be been Reading All these letters lately about complaints. One person complains about How hard they have it so somebody else has to write in to say How much worse they have it. Well i m not writing to complain. I used to hate it Here in Germany i used to have Many complaints myself. I think i be grown up in the last year i have teamed to live Here adapt to a new culture. I fell so Good when my Mother came to visit she said How proud she was of me. She was proud because i put up with some inconveniences so Well she did t think she could Cope 01 Well As i do. 1 Don t complain anymore Well maybe occasionally i be been much happier Here. Things arc never As bad As you think. Shelley s. Reisher Herzog Naurich West Germany history corrected in Don talc s interesting grim article on the Battle of Verdun there is a Small historical error. Ver Dun is not where the sons but rather the grandsons of Charlemagne divided up his Empire in . 843. Bernard slash timer Ramstein West Germany All letters to the editor must contain the full printed name address of the writer must be signed. We do not read unsigned letters. Right to peaceably assemble in groups in order to make our views known in our representative govern ment. Should patriots tolerate corrupt ineffective or unresponsive government without protest just to avoid embarrassment for every protest movement in our nation s history that brought embarrassment to our nation there have been just As Many secretive Deci Sions made by our Leaden that have brought embarrassment to our land. The soviet Union worries about embarrassment ridicule caused by dissenters protesters it lakes very effective Steps to silence them. Is this whal the writer wishes for us As Well if it were not for the women s suffrage protests this writer in ail likelihood would not have had a letter in the paper. If not for the civil rights protests marches of the 50s 60s, a Large segment of our population would still be without the political rights necessary to influence government. Without worker protests wages would still be ridiculously Tow children would be slaving in factories the work Day would be 16 hours Long. Without environmental protests the Protection of endangered species the environment May never have come about. The Point is peaceable protest civil disobedience arc vital tools in influencing government la does not mean that the american Way of life is some How endangered nor Are protesters anti american or unpatriotic. The Power of the people to organize assemble if need be to protest is perhaps one of the greatest freedoms that we enjoy 1, like Many others serve the people of our nation to ensure those free Doms continue.
