Franken forgets state’s pro-gun viewpoint
Published Thursday, July 17, 2008
In one of Senate candidate Al Franken’s literary efforts titled “Rush Limbaugh Is A Big Fat Idiot,” he reveals his personal feelings about a topic important to many Minnesotans. In Chapter 12 of his book, I learned that candidate Franken is against private ownership of guns due to his belief that firearms in the home are “too dangerous.” I believe these views are more consistent with California or New York, where Mr. Franken still maintains corporate interests.
His problem is Minnesota has always been a pro-gun state. Remember, a bipartisan majority passed “conceal and carry.” I called the National Rifle Association’s legislative office April 22 for Sen. Norm Coleman’s most recent NRA rating score. Coleman’s previous votes and questionaire answers qualified him for their hightest category — A.

What is it with certain prolific politicians with long paper trails trying to change their stripes at every turn?
Oh, and neither the Mn Citizens' Personal Protection Act nor anywhere else in MN Law requires concealment. In MN, it's accurately reflected as a Carry Permit or a Permit to Carry a Pistol.
