Arizona ranked BOTH best AND worst for guns?

Arizona has been ranked the number one state in the nation for good gun laws and the best place for gun ownership, by the largest consumer publication in the industry, Guns & Ammo, a fact virtually hidden by mass media. In contrast, the Brady group, which fights for restrictive gun-control, has given Arizona an "F," trumpeted by media nationally. The omission highlights the distorted view news media presents to the public, a bias the journalism industry vehemently denies.

Even more significant, the nation's fierce debate over guns and their role in society not only doesn't happen on a level playing field, it is taking place without gravity. That the two main competing sides can rate a single player in such a diametric way suggests the core values of the teams, and not the facts of the situation, control the outcome of the debate. JPFO sees this as extremely dangerous to the right of the people to keep and bear arms. Balancing government power and exercising the G-d given natural right of self defense are in jeopardy.

If consideration of your rights can be so distorted that opponents can't discern values, or accurately interpret our Constitution and history, the nation runs the risk of declining into lawlessness and chaos. In that event, it is a powerfully good thing the public is well armed, for it will be needed. It is JPFO's position that Arizona is indeed a bastion of rights and sails a proper course. Giving it an "F" rating is a perverse distortion of what is good, just and constitutional. What Brady and their supporters seek diminishes human and civil rights, leaving criminals virtually unchecked in every case.
