Talk about your drama queen.

The Arizona House of Representatives passed a bill that would let people carry weapons -- guns, grenades, sawed-off shotguns, rockets, even land mines -- into schools, polling places and nuclear plants.

According to the Arizona Daily Star newspaper, essentially any weapon not banned by federal law could be carried anywhere, as long as the person claimed he was trying to protect himself.

Well, let's see 4 out of the 5 items mentioned are banned by federal law. And land mines are banned by international treaty to boot.

Clearly the author thinks that wild exaggerations will bring more people over to his side of the argument. It escapes him that all gun control laws are, by definition, completely unnecessary. Murder is already illegal. And if murderers are going to break one law, passing another one isn't going to stop them.
