While I agreed with the recent 2nd Amendment decision by SCOTUS, this story illustrates the lunacy of the NRA. The NRA has long gone over the edge on this issue and it would seem that they will not be satisfied until every citizen will be forced to carry a projectile weapon. Do we really want a society where everybody is packing heat? I remember the times that I was bullied and beaten in high School. Should my redress have been to shoot my attackers in self defense? It is beyond belief that the NRA has taken on this issue, without a semblance of understanding of where it can lead us. Sadly, I can only conclude that many of the members in power in the NRA long for the mythical days of the Wild West. The irony of course is that those days only existed in inaccurate, romanticized literature and drama.

What do you need a gun for at Disney World? Is there a big crime wave there? Is it reasonable for an employer to let their employees carry weapons? I can picture large lawsuit problems for Disney if an employee injures someone with a gun. I wish the NRA was this energetic in protecting the First and Fourth Amendments during the Bush regime.
