A lot of twists and turns in this story from Breitbart.com. Shock, no one else in the media apart from Fox is bothering to cover it.

Allah has a good summary.

Mark Kelly, Gabby Giffords' husband, got caught buying an AR-15. Not a crime, of course, but certainly a strange purchase for a gun-control advocate looking to ban the weapon.

He then claimed he was buying it to demonstrate how easy it is to buy an AR-15.

Couple problems with this story:

1. He didn't actually buy it. The gun he intended to buy was on consignment, and there's a 20-day federal delay to check to see if the weapon was used in a crime. On the other hand, had he bought a new AR-15, he could have walked right out of the store with it-- thus demonstrating the point he claims he wanted to make.

What is with astronauts?? John Glenn and Mark Kelly are Liberals...is there something in space that causes their brain to go crazy??

Mark Kelly, you are late in buying it... you should have one before Giffords was shot, so she could shoot back!!

Just goes to the power of buying a gun.

Among such things as getting loose and firing on their own, they make you lie.

Ah, the Pete Townsend defense.

Pete Townshend says child porn foray was 'research,' and 'insane'

Kelly is acting a bit like Brady's wife. Parading and exploiting his damaged wife for profit and pushing his liberal view points. It's good to see Gabby recovering some part of her life, but being used to read prepared anti-gun tripe is just disgusting.
