That one grabbed me as well.

The vast majority of the States avoided this hysteria.

Some States were more than ready for any incident, to justify disarming the law-abiding citizens.

These sort of overkill laws can be reversed down the political road, on the State level. What has to be resisted with all of our will, is ANY Federal law that mandates each, and every, State to restrict lawful gun ownership.

Thanks for the post. I read most of the comments as well, and when I got to
"Soap, ballot, jury, ammo. The boxes are running out in a lot of states."
my blood literally ran cold. Never happened before.
this is bad - and I live in Colorado.
