So, we know the story about freshly minted gun control advocate Mark Kelly buying an AR-15, right? He was on his way to pick up a .45 when he saw a used AR-15 in the store. He picked up the rifle on the spot to turn it back in to the Tuscon AZ PD.
Turns out it's mostly bullshit.
And while I don't trust Brietbart, they are, for once, right about Arizona requiring police departments to re-sell guns turned over to them.
I think what's really going on is that Mark Kelly wanted an AR-15 and saw a cheap one. So he bought it. As far as I'm concerned, there's nothing wrong with that. In fact, the only thing wrong with what he did is that it shot a hole in the narrative of the gun control crowd.
