Well put Stan. I have to give Midway credit for having the balls to do this. Brownell's and Graf's should do the same thing. Sorry but I can't feel any other way towards the state that gave us the likes of Schumer and Bloomberg.

So in other words, lets extrapolate on your comment; no one should be upset about anything that happens with our gun rights anywhere since the majority of the country put Obama in office and so we all deserve what we get?
When California passed their requirements to sell to California gun buyers and dealers, a number of dealers said they would no longer sell to California. Who did that hurt? The Gun owners and no one else.
Besides which, the SAFE Act doesnt have any licensing requirements for out of state distributors. NONE!
Your states of North and South Dakota aren't immune from the tentacles of progressive politics and I wonder what you will be saying when someone votes one of them into office and it impacts you. I don't know if you are from N or S Dakota but you have had a few liberals too, and I am assuming you didn't vote for them.
George McGovern ring a bell?
Here is form a website of Liberal Dakota politics
"If you buy the Republican hype, you believe that North Dakota is pure right wing territory. Of course, it's not. There are plenty of strong, principled progressives just south of Saskatchewan, without much hope that their efforts will be recognized, but with plenty of determination to give it their best shot anyway. A thick stew of good liberal values is simmering just beneath the crusty skin of knee-jerk conservatism across the state.
We put together this collection of progressive resources in North Dakota because we want to help the grassroots activists of North Dakota in their struggle to bring the values of freedom and fairness back to the top. Of course, there's a mighty big territory to cover between Wahpeton and Williston, so we're looking for help in expanding out listings. If you know of any progressive candidates, information resources or organizations in North Dakota that we don't have listed here, let us know so that we can consider including them in our growing index."
http://irregularnews.com/states/nd.html The attitude you mention is what is hurting the gun owners of saying it takes balls to cave to NY when there is nothing that prevents them from selling there?
I vote in NY and have so for more than 30 years. And I don't vote for "the likes of Schumer and Bloomberg".
And in 5 years I will be voting with my feet.
have lost big time in States such as Colorado on the anti-gunner recall vote. All Blooomberg has is a lot of money; he doesn't have realistic and persuasive arguments on his side.
