Criminals are never materially handicapped by such rules;
the only effect is to disarm the peaceful citizen
and put him fully at the mercy of the lawless.
Such rules look very pretty on paper;
in practice they are as foolish and footless as the attempt of the mice to bell the cat.
Such is my thesis,
that the licensing of weapons
is subversive of liberty and self-defeating in its pious purpose.

Washington DC, March 24, 2018. A massive crowd here for the March for Our Lives Protest against the NRA and the absence of common sense gun laws in our country. The demonstration was sparked by students from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School where 17 people were killed on Valentines Day by a shooter with an assault rifle.
This is one of the first photos I made with my "new" Nikkor-S 50mm f/1.4 lens. It was made in 1972 or 1973. It is quite scratched, dusty and maybe even has a little fungus growing, along with damaged coatings.
Nonetheless, it is fun to play with. I performed a crude AI-modification to the aperture ring (I used a file). The lens now works perfectly with my Nikon D600 (full metering and focus confirmation).
