Long read, worth the while.
Aw...crap...I screwed up the excerpt...click the link and ignore the Olbermann-Bachmann stuff that got included in the excerpt....SORRY.
I am SHOCKED! Truly shocked that the CP actually had an article like this....
Nitpicking, I know.
What's that? A brokeback reporter Buckmark?
Actually picked up CP at the Liqour store because of this article. Very good. Shockingly the reporter didn’t do their homework and get their permit to purchase.
If the premise of the article is to see how easy to purchase a firearm, why wouldn’t you...you know...follow the rules?
M.O.B. will tell the twin cities what they can have. The liberal utopia of gangs and cops.
Ping!
If the likes of Joan were truly for a safer Minnesota, they would be advocating that everyone capable get a permit to carry.
The stats show crime is reduced thus Minnesota is safer.
If it's OK to use a background check before allowing a person to exercise one right then why isn't it OK to use the same system before someone can register to vote or get an abortion? After all, felons can't vote and people who are mentally incompetent can't consent to medical procedures. Somehow I don't think the lefties would view NICS checks so warmly then.
Very good article. Nice to see someone actually did their homework before running their mouth.
I conducted a personal sale of a firearm in Minnesota. We met in a parking lot and I checked his permit to purchase and his identification. Nice and legal...can’t remember his name now, not that it matters anyway :)
