  Retail firearms should be sold at a legitimate place of business that is visible to all and in the business district of a town where it can be monitored. The sale of retail firearms should not take place in the secrecy of one’s home basement.
     Contrary to the opinion  of some council members, a gun store is not just another new business opening in town. We live in a day and age, where in the case of selling firearms, it is better to error on the side of strict regulations than on wanting to simply add another business to the list.

I noticed this was an editorial but it does make one wonder how objective Wayne would be in covering other news relating to firearms.

Haven't you noticed that editorials is what makes up 95% of so called reporting these days?  How often do you read or hear a story that gives facts from a middle of the road point of view?  Remove the first person from this ranting, and you are left with a typical "news" story today.

You know, I'd be tempted to register and post a comment if I thought it would make one darned bit of difference.
