Gun Totin' Threatens Gun Totin' Bill
St. Paul. Just as Minnesota legislators sit down to vote on the reinstatement of the Gun Bill to allow more Minnesotan's to tote a pistola anywhere they done want to, many Democratic members received a threatening email.
"We will send people to your homes to harass you, and look in your windows, If this does not work, we have information on you and your family, and we will use it in any way shape or form to get our bill passed." read the email.
As legislation sits on this bill while an investigation insues lets look at the logic of this email. O.K. there is none. Personally, the R.A.G. Files doesn't have a problem with people carrying arms, I've got two of 'em, my one uncle has one and a half. Seriously, responsible people should have the right to carry firearms if they so chose. It's a constitutional right. But unfortunately, as with every right we have, there is always idiots out there that abuse the hell out of them and we get our rights limited. Let's face it, the above email will not help only hinder the vote on gun carrying.
All of this would not have happened if Guv Nah Plenty would've thought about the law when he first passed it. He allowed every Minnesotan to buy and carry a weapon without any details or laws that would govern who would get them. He left that up to local governments.
I'm thinking that the bill will go through, no matter what. Maybe prolonged a bit, but it will go through. And I think that Plenty has only just begun passing stupid laws for stupid people. But if you watch the things he goes after, you'll also notice who his supporters are, who campaigned for him and who financed him.
