    | The would-be gun shop owner is a Marine Corps veteran: James Gates, 28 is getting his own support to open the shop and push back on the protest, from Arlington Falls Church Young Republicans. They’ve started a petition of their own:
 
 “NOVA Firearms, which plans to open the shop, is owned by Marine Corps veteran James “J.B.” Gates. Stand with J.B., the 2nd Amendment, and small business owners everywhere by signing the Arlington Falls Church Young Republicans’ petition of support below.”
 
 The GOP petition features an image of Uncle Sam with the slogan “We Want You to Support the Second Amendment.”

    | Someone should point out to Kapasouris that the "community was upset" in Arkansas in the '60s about blacks going to white schools. 
 Ah, so WHAT?

                      | Today the taxing power, rather than chattel slavery, is the instrument by which the parasitical element of the population subsists. And that element, which includes politicians, panics at the slightest reduction in the state's power to plunder. Once you start liberating taxpayers, even a little tiny bit, nobody knows where it may end. —Joseph Sobran |  |  |
