While reading the article on the New York Times I was whisked to an older article on Dick Cheney and Glocks that brought an interesting thought to mind. Many of us are writing letters like mad hoping for the sunset of the nefarious semi-automatic rifle ban. But have we written the Vice President? The article [...]
