I know a lot of gun owners feel the same way. I feel like that when I go to a computer show 🙂
White House hopeful Fred Thompson called his trip down aisle of rifles, shotguns and pistols at a gun show “a day in paradise,” and said he wished he could come back to spend more time and money.
It was the former Tennessee senator and “Law and Order” actor’s second trip to a gun show since launching his late bid for the GOP nomination in September.
He reached out and picked up an old M-1 Garand rifle and raised an over-and-under Winchester shotgun suitable for the skeet shooting he’s been known to do as he made his way through the 200 vendors at The Land of the Sky Gun Show at a fairgrounds just outside of North Charleston, S.C.
“It’s a beautiful day in paradise,” Thompson said when greeted by one of the people packing the show’s aisles.
I bet the press is freaking out that a presidential candidate would be comfortable enough with guns to say that.
