Letter to the editor: Law is about creating more who are pro-gun

To the editor:

The Republicans in the Wisconsin State Legislature are pushing what they call a "Hunter's Rights Bill" that actually is pro-gun legislation. It would prevent property owners from stopping a hunter, or anyone with a gun, from trespassing on the homeowner's property. The way the legislation is written, it prevents anyone from "harassing" anyone with a gun. This is just a sneaky way to prevent businesses, colleges, libraries, malls, public buildings, schools, and universities from preventing pro-handgun nuts from entering with their concealed or open carrying of a handgun.

Now the Republicans in the Wisconsin State Legislature are going after Wisconsin's minimum gun age. This plays off the "fear" that hunting is a dying sport. This proposal would result in no minimum age for hunting. Again, this is not really about hunting. It is about creating more pro-gun nuts by putting guns in the hands of children.

Will the stupidity of the pro-gun nuts, the gun manufacturers, the gun lobby, and Republicans ever end?
