Robert Kittle reports:
Most people are probably unaware of it, but on the Friday and Saturday after Thanksgiving, handguns, rifles and shotguns will be sales tax free in South Carolina. State lawmakers passed a bill in June that includes the sales tax holiday on firearms. They called it the Second Amendment Recognition Act.
As expected, this rare piece of libertarian bliss has the control freak’s panties in a wad:
But gun control advocates worry that removing the sales tax will, in fact, increase sales as intended and they think it should be harder to get guns, not easier.
I suggest using these morons for target practice.

I’m a gun owner and live in NC. I don’t know where y’all live, but have you been to SC lately? Or attended a gun show there? Talk about wackadoo nut jobs, it’s downright scary. Of course people should own firearms, but I have no problem with common sense regulations on what kind of weapons folks can buy. No one needs rocket launchers or machine guns to protect their property, period. And there is NO good reason for the seriously mentally ill or those convicted of violent offenses to own firearms.
The people I’d use for target practice are those pretending to be all about freedom, while advocating restrictions and prohibitions on legal abortions and the availability of contraceptives. You know, like the so-called libertarian candidates?
Anna Van – Most libertarians support a woman’s right to abortion and I really don’t think one could even be considered a real libertarian if they wanted to prohibit contraceptives or anything remotely similar.
