Gun laws are getting looser across much of US - Yahoo! News (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20091211/ap_on_bi_ge/us_looser_gun_laws - broken link)
If you notice, the states that loosened gun laws were the states that felt the most threatened by this Administration. As such, this should come as no surprise to anyone.
If I were the states with tight gun controls, i'd be afraid that your constituency is illegally armed (ie. criminals have guns, law-abiders don't), while the rest of the nation is armed legally and more than ready for whatever event that may confront them. Something to think about.

If wasn't just states, the Federal laws were loosened too. Like the abolishion of the ban to carry in national parks. The whole gun-grab thing was just a huge pile of steamy Limbaugh and Glenn Beck BS.

As is right more often than not, if you want the truth, follow the $$$.
