Market For Guns

So it seems fair to conclude that
there is a market for guns in
Charlottesville. Maybe the town is
full of hunters. Or maybe, as Tony
Imperiale, head of a citizens vigilante
committee in Newark maintains,
the possession of guns is a
constitutional right. Or maybe it is
finally just an individual who takes
literally the old American myth of
the man who eats his meat with
gun-powder.
