We're the Only Ones Denying Enough

When we last visited Ramsey County, Minnesota Sheriff Bob Fletcher, he was left trying to explain just why his handgun carry permit denial rate was so much higher than any other county in Minnesota, and exactly why the data that his own office reported to the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (the state agency required by law to collect such numbers once a year from each of the 87 counties in Minnesota) appeared to provide direct evidence that someone in Fletcher's office was trying to hide an even higher denial rate from the BCA as well as the public at large.

Why?

Oh, that's easy. Because he can. If he couldn't, he wouldn't.

This investigative report from Northern Muckraker is the kind of stuff you'll never see coming out of blogger-disparaging "Authorized Journalists."
