They have to cheat to win
Alan Korwin of gunlaws.com writes of Arizona’s measure to allow concealed weapon permit holders to carry into a bar:
Why on Earth would the National Rifle Association promote laws so “gun-toting” people could “pack heat” in bars and not drink?
Say what? That doesn’t even make sense. It’s beyond stupid. And in fact, the NRA promoted no such thing.
But you wouldn’t know it from reading the papers or following newscasts.
The inaccurately characterized “guns-in-bars” bill received twisted coverage, using derision and phony Wild West mythology, from reporters and editors who earned rebuke for such unethical spin.
It’s not surprising as the anti-gunners must lie to win. They lied about CCW and the ban on weapons that look like assault weapons. They lie about gun shows. They lie about 50 calibers.
