The Washington Post<\/a>, which is clearly anti-gun given all of the pointless propaganda they publish on a daily basis, targets gun laws in a hastily-written piece on their pages today;<\/p>\n

Arizona gun laws, which have been criticized by gun-control groups, permit any law-abiding resident older than 18 to buy or possess a firearm. Federal law requires anyone buying a handgun, as opposed to a rifle or shotgun, to be at least 21.<\/p>\n

Arizona laws were relaxed even further last year when Gov. Jan Brewer (R) signed a National Rifle Association-backed bill repealing a state law requiring gun owners to have a permit to carry a concealed weapon. State law now permits anyone 21 years or older and legally qualified to own a firearm to carry the weapon without a concealed-to-carry permit.<\/p>\n

Brewer’s predecessor, Janet Napolitano, now secretary of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, had previously vetoed attempts<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

They make it sound like a crime that law-abiding citizens over 21 are allowed to buy handguns in Arizone, don’t they? In fact, Jared Loughner was a law abiding citizen when he purchased the gun, too. I found a two-year-old ticket for running a stop sign and some dropped charges in another case. That’s pretty close to law-abiding isn’t it?<\/p>\n

Of course, what everyone has their balls in an uproar over are his community college refusal to let him back on campus before he gets a mental evaluation. Do you seriously want what some community college thinks of your mental state in your police records? If he’d done something that threatened others, they should have charged him. But some nebulous order for an evaluation – it’s their fault that it wasn’t in his records.<\/p>\n

I’m not arguing that Loughner should have had a gun, I’m arguing that no one put anything in his records to prevent him from getting a gun. Everyone makes it sound like something should have been put in his records, yet there’s nothing there.<\/p>\n

In another WaPo article<\/a>, drunk-ass Jim Moran beclowns himself with fake conversations he had with Congresswoman Giffords before the shooting.<\/p>\n

“Gabby did tell me that she was concerned,” Moran said, using Giffords’s nickname. “She did say it’s really bad out there, particularly in a district like [hers]. She was very much troubled that Sarah Palin put her in the crosshairs.”<\/p>\n

Moran said Giffords explained that, unlike in his Northern Virginia district, “a substantial percentage” of her district was “anti-government and pro-gun” – a potentially dangerous mix. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Nice one, Moran. i get the sense he’s whistling past the graveyard thinking Arizona isn’t like his constituency. There are more “anti-government and pro-gun” people in Northern Virginia than he knows. I know more than a few who open-carry their large caliber handguns in VA.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
