Looks like the Liberals have spilled over the border from California in mass quantities.

These commies are simply going to go after the states one at a time. Time to ramp up the counter ban crowds and put these ba$tards on notice. For everything there is a price.

I don't see this happening. There's a sign at my AJ's that you can't carry a gun in the store. Instead they hold me up at the register! LOL

It'll never happen.

The AZ legislature is pretty good.

They just passed a law allowing people to carry handguns in bars if they aren't drinking, for heck's sake.

Oops!!!! it didn't pass!!! :(

Gun-rights supporters have been able to largely get their way in the Arizona Legislature in recent years. However, the Senate this year rejected a bill to make it legal to take guns in bars and restaurants if the person carrying the gun wasn't drinking alcohol and if the establishments didn't opt out.

i think it's unlikely. Come november, our congress will be majority right of the aisle.

the more the government/crazy activists want to take away guns the more i think they have something planned in which they don't want to have to deal with an armed body of citizens. :/

And THAT's why I do whatever I can to discourage Californians fleeing the neo-Marxism of the Golden State not to come to Indiana.

A lot of them (Freepers and like minded folks not included) tend to bring along the same mindset that is turning CA into a Third World hell-hole to their new homes, and immediately start lobbying for the same policies that they fled in the first place.

What happened to Arizona?
I haven’t been through there in 22 years, but the people I met were pretty much good people. They didn’t fall for every half witted scam that came down the draw.
Did that State get a big influx of Lame Liberal Kalifornians?

Funny. I remember gun owners saying the same thing in California. Now look at the f***ed-up mess we're in.

No one in their right mind, eh? Congratulations. You just identified John McCain's constituents and future voters for John F'n Kerry.
