An editorial by the local newspaper's board regarding the Missoula city council's proposal for universal background checks on gun purchases:

MISSOULIAN EDITORIAL: New background check rules wrong for Missoula

Everything they need to know about why gun control doesn't work is right here---and from a liberal magazine no less:

Communists: I still hate them even after they changed their name to "liberals".

Missoula is a liberal arts college town and a really screwed up city because of it. When the wind blows from the south, I can almost smell the hippy stank 120 miles North.

I'll add that the proposed law would be illegal under state law.

As far as I read, before needng to go to bed, that seems to be a well thought-out, and written, article. I'll finish it later.

Thanks for the link, and goodnight.
