Wow, a daily letter. And I thought I wrote my elected officials frequently.

Perhaps I should try this daily thing. Even if I don't get my way, they'd all know me by name at least and consider me a royal pain in the rear. Which is fair, since I find most of them a royal pain.

Thanks for the warm welcome. I don't just read up, I write editorials regularly on the subject of gun rights such as this recent one in the Milwaukee Journal:

BADGER GUNS
The wrong villain


I was appalled by the blatant gun-bashing bias of the front-page article on Badger Guns (Page 1A, Sept. 27). The article makes it appear that that particular gun store is doing something wrong.

Here's what the store is doing "wrong":

First, it is located closer to the high-crime areas of Milwaukee than any other gun shop, and, second, it has a high sales volume.

I can think of places that sell more guns than Badger, but it seems that criminals in Milwaukee aren't willing to take a 25-mile drive outside the city to buy their guns in areas that have almost no gun crime despite having stores that sell a stunning number of firearms.

What is the store guilty of other than being located closer to a crime-infested city than other gun shops that locate in surrounding counties where gun crime is a rarity?
