An Open Letter To The Idiot Nation [View all]

I saw this link on Balloon Juice from Stonekettle Station. It is a thing of beauty:


“You were both trained by the military, I know you both, I’ve shot alongside you, you’ve shot on my range under my command, and neither one of you would have allowed an unqualified or unstable individual anywhere near a gun. But now? Now you send me an endless stream of hysterical NRA bullshit squawking about how anybody should be allowed to own whatever gun he wants without so much as a background check? ”
