Oct 2014

Rushing the bills through in a way that prevented comment from constituents, and all the other shenanigans having to do with the junk gun laws passed over there, and the perceived skullduggery engaged in when passing them, has a whole lot of people over there rightfully pissed off.

We'll see how much of an exclamation point that turns into, come election day.

I suspect its going to be a costly day...Not that I think that the culture warrior anti-gun types have any interest in taking credit for it.
