Its a tough call: If all the gun manufacturers leave anti-gun’ states, then those state legislators don’t even need to take into account the impact on jobs and the economy, when they pass even more laws. I do think that in some cases, some gun laws have been muted/watered down in recognition of the manufacturing base...it may have the effect of making anti-gun states more anti-gun, and pro-gun states more pro-gun....that is not necessarily a good thing.
They don't much anyway. Plus, if that's true, it'll lead to the gun friendly states being even more so, and even with a boost, the anti states are still going to suck. Time to cut em loose and stop enabling bad legislative behavior. They should be starved out and refused entry into free states.
