Travel Icon Says He'll Avoid Arizona Because of Gun Laws
Fox News ^ | August 21, 2009 | N/A

Posted on 08/22/2009 9:38:18 AM PDT by Jet Jaguar

Travel icon Arthur Frommer says he won't be spending his tourism dollars at the Grand Canyon, or anywhere else in Arizona, because the state's laws allow people he described as "thugs" and "extremists" to openly carry firearms.

The author of budget-travel guides said on his blog Wednesday that he was "shocked beyond measure" by reports that protesters openly carried guns and rifles outside a Phoenix building where President Barack Obama spoke on Monday.

Frommer says he won't personally travel in a state where civilians carry loaded weapons as a means of political protest.

Did this elitist think AZ frontier families settled the land with hugs and flower boquets? Even Anthony Bourdain shot rifles with the Nuge down in Texas

I’m sure Arizona doesn’t give a sh*t what this little pussy thinks of their gun laws. People like this make me want to vomit.

Arthur Frommer is an grumpy, limp wristed, old queen. All queers hate guns for some reason. Too bad Donald Young didn’t have one. If he had, he might be alive today. Instead he was easy fodder for the obama windy city fag killing thugs.

Boo hoo. He must not be too famous. I never heard of him. Perhaps he would prefer a trip to Baghdad or Kabul, or maybe Indonesia?

Good riddance to bad rubbish.

Never heard of the guy.

Same here...although it actually makes Arizona all the more attractive of a place to visit.

Yes, I am sure he prefers an area where only criminals carry guns to a place where law abiding citizens carry guns. Makes sense to me.

He should go to Camden, NJ then if he feels that way.

Talk a tour of the streets at night and see what happens.

Useful Idiot.

His information just informed me an other real Americans that AZ is a safer place to visit. Pro gun conservative states get my tourist dollars.

Sounds like he just called all Americans thugs and extremists. Glad I never bought any of his overpriced books.

Who the hell is this? I’m sure the people of Arizona will be on bended knee in agony over the loss of a man of which no one has ever heard. LOL.

See, this is why I love the First Amendment.

It allows pinheads like Arthur Frommer the freedom to reveal their political leanings so that, in his case, I can know never to buy one of his travel guides when I’m retired enough to give a rip.
