Look! Our town!
Okay, I know I said I was signing off the election stuff, but this doesn’t really count. Check out what showed up in the UK’s Daily Mail:
PETER HITCHENS: The Zombie and the Third-World Marxist … How the American West views the presidential race
They tell me that about one person in 50 on the streets of Moscow, Idaho, is legally carrying a concealed pistol. A lot more have them in their cars. I rather approve of this, though I don’t think I’ll join in.
Many of those packing heat are women combining a hard, practical feminism with a conservative view of the right to bear arms.
The important thing is that you don’t know who is armed and who isn’t, and nor do potential rapists and muggers. I am sure this arrangement improves everyone’s manners no end.
It is certainly a very polite place and shoot-outs here are a good deal rarer than they are in gun-controlled London or Manchester.
…
It’s really a fantastic article, but I’m probably biased because I feel like I’m in on all the inside jokes.
For the record, picture #1 is inside Tri-State, where we don’t shop because they are anti-open-carry.
But this?
That’s Sure Shot, our go-to gun shop, and we flippin’ LOVE that sign. I just about died when I saw that picture in the article.
Awesome, awesome, awesome. I love our weird little town.
Hilarious. I am going to have to make it a point to visit.
