The New Hampshire law will "permit any employee working for a company that receives any state or federal money to store their loaded gun in a locked car."

All it took was a storage container, paint and a few hours of work to make his kids' something they'll enjoy.

One of the largest gun manufacturers in the United States is based in New Hampshire.

New Hampshire's Sig Sauer can briefly be seen during the Kristen Bell movie, "Queenpins."

A bill to allow Maine forest rangers to carry guns has stalled and may be carried over for consideration next year. Nearly 20 forest rangers testified in favor of the bill last month.

I love Stephen King. Not so much for his writings (I will address my issues on his books later in this note), but for who he is. He is a man of great personal success and a man who has shown he still has a heart, is grounded, compassionate and gees, kinda reasonable.  Today I apply those descriptions of Mr. King on the issue of gun control.

Bear arms, not armed bears.  Sorry, had to go there. A Sabattus man feels there ought to be a law which mandates every Sabattus head of household to own a gun. This is not the first time this idea has been floated. A town outside of Atlanta, Georgia did this years ago and it apparently worked!
