Ignorance is bipartisan

Peter King [R - NY] is one of those so called Republicans that never seen a piece of gun control legislation he hasn't liked. He threatening to introduce a bill that will make it illegal to knowingly carry a firearm within one thousand feet of a high profile government official. Normally I wouldn't give this kind of grandstanding a snowball's chance but if Congress critters see this as a matter of their personal safety I'm afraid they choose their ass over their oath every time. The point King misses is that his office should offer him no more protection that anyone else. If he's worried he can get a CCW permit and carry like the rest of us. It's also my hope that local gun owners target his ass in the next election and vote him out of office. How's that for violent rhetoric.
