Well, I'm glad this guy lives in New Hampshire, the only New England state (well, maybe Maine too) that isn't completely insane. Found via Wizbang. I especially like the bit about the bumper sticker: "Gun Control Means Using Both Hands".
That's one area Republicans, conservatives, Libertarians can agree upon is the 2nd Amendment rights. Gun control means being able to hit your target :-) - I will never understand how liberals want to lay down laws on guns, etc. You really think evil-doers are going to purchase their guns lawfully at say Wal-Mart?
You mentioned conservative states in New England. I sincerely think the only state up there that's considered somewhat even close enough to be conservative would be New Hampshire. West Virginia and Virginia aren't considered New England I believe.....
Yeah, New England consists of the states of Maine, NH, Massachusetts, Vermont, Connecticut, and Rhode Island. Of those states only NH can be considered conservative, although there are some rural parts of Maine that I think still have some conservative values firmly entrenched (even if they might be influenced by French Canada significantly). WV and VA are both considered southern states, being below the Mason-Dixon line - although MD is also below the line and I would consider it Mid-Atlantic. PA is about the only mid-Atlantic state that has strong conservative parts, and maybe some small portions of upstate NY.
My favorite relative bumper sticker is "GUN CONTROL: The idea that a woman found dead in an alley raped and strangled with her panty hose is somehow morally superior to the woman explaining to an officer how her attacker got that fatal bullet wound."
In case you haven't heard, New Mexico appears to be sympathetic also, at least in this case. Unfortunately, there are rumors speculating the attacker's family is suing...
