Examples of abiding in a Sentence

1. Chuck Michel of Long Beach:

   NRA and CRPA constantly get calls from law abiding people having problems getting their guns back, the state Department of Justice wrongly tells police not to give guns back unless the person can document ownership of the gun and it is registered in the state DOJ’s database. But the law doesn’t require this.

2. The FBI:

   Investigators will work to identify the person or group responsible, the motivation and whether religious bias was a factor, all evidence will be reviewed by state and federal prosecutors to determine whether a violation under federal civil rights statutes occurred. The FBI is committed to ensure law-abiding citizens are protected and to deter those who would threaten them.

3. Jesse Kremer:

   As Wisconsin legislators, we are constantly being challenged by some of the leaders in our larger communities to stop the violence, and I do not believe that disarming a certain segment of law-abiding citizens, our college students, leads to less violence. I believe, instead, it is providing criminals and thugs an easy target to victimize.

4. Eric Kim:

   I encourage people to think about their values and the causes they care most about, whatever the cause, now is a moment in history when society needs your service the most. If you are able to do so while abiding by public health guidelines, you not only help heal the world, but you might help yourself as well.

5. Elvira Nieto:
