Wal-Mart's policy regarding guns varies, but it has stopped selling them at about 1,000 stores, and that's good news for folks who believe guns are too readily available...
While this was a marketing decision by the world's largest retailer, there is comfort in the knowledge that guns are a little tougher to come by, that cruising off the highway into just any Wal-Mart does not assure that a gun purchase is just moments away...
That's OK, because there are 1,000 fewer outlets nationwide where guns are sold.
Liberal establishment editorialists. Is there anything they
don't know?
David, in fairness to the article, you probably should add the line right before the last - about how it will help local gun dealers out.
ReplyDeleteBeing a Norwich, Ct paper - while they may be liberal gun banners, I would presume they are also well aware of the hit working Connecticutans have taken as a result of the loss of the firearms industry in the state.
Helping local gun dealers make a bit more just might also help those existing firearms makers be a bit more profitable as well (the money flows both ways) and its possible that could be enough to bring back Winchester (though I sort of doubt it).
"Is there anything they DON'T know?"
ReplyDeleteThat would be pretty much everything, Dave! Now, if you had asked "is there anything they don't THINK they know", then the answer is a resounding "NO"! ;o)
As a new person to the world of guns (at 54) and a librarian who covertly pushes a pro-gun agenda in my job I appreciate your blog. Keep up the good work.
