Editorial

A recent perusal of the Internet forums showed civilian gun owner advice like:

"Empty the magazine into BG, but don't reload" "Shoot until his head disappears" "If they come into my house, I'll kill everyone of them." ...AND the idiocy of posting this trash! This is right up there with "drag the body inside if you shoot them outside." This has GOT to STOP!!!

Conn. Dems list defense, target shooting and hunting/collecting as a reason to get a permit and own a gun. Go figure!
