Re “Gun Show Still a Draw for Firearms Fans,” Sept. 12.
In this article, Dick Corrente is quoted as saying, “People think we’re giving permits to drunks and crazy guys.” Well, the fact is that the gun dealers at these traveling shows don’t know that they’re not selling to drunks and crazy guys.
I’m tired of worrying about my daughter growing up in a world in which guns are too easily acquired by too many people. I have put my legislators on notice that I will never again vote for anyone who is not in favor of strict--if not Draconian--gun controls. Gun bans? Better yet.
