Editorial: Lightning Round

Remember their names

The representatives from Philadelphia, by their lame-brained objections to any "pro-gun" amendments or bills - and their similar endorsements of "anti-gun" amendments and bills - have convinced me that they believe their constituents to be utterly incapable of responsible citizenship...but they dare not admit it. It is very sad to behold. Because I have no life, I watched the proceedings last night on PCN.
