Just two days after a gunman jumped on to a stage in Columbus, Ohio, and shot dead a heavy metal guitarist and three others before himself being shot dead, it might seem surprising to hear that elsewhere a state is extending gun owners' rights.

Only a liberal would find this surprising.

But in Oklahoma, as across much of rural America, gun control is seen as the work of naive and meddling minds.

A naive and meddling mind - somebody like, say, a liberal?

In recent years companies have been implementing anti-gun policies in an attempt to cut down on violence at the work place.

At least the author made the agenda clear in this sentence.

Now they fear the Oklahoman ruling will encourage the powerful gun lobby all over America to try to roll back the reforms.

Gun control is never about repressing our rights. It's always about the holy, righteous, lofty goal of "reform".

Paul Viollis, the president of Risk Control Strategies, is appalled at the new law. Every week there are 17 murders at the work place across America, and most of them involve guns, he says.

And I'm sure, if you dig into the statistics, that the real story is that he's counting cops, security guards, EMT's, convenience store clerks and other high risk occupations. Nice try, but we won't be fooled by this bu!!$h!t any more.

this is not roll back of laws, this is PROGRESS for individual rights.

The primitives who seek to impose comunism one obscure law at a time are being left in the dust bin of failure.

Only a liberal would even think the two were related.
