No quid pro quo, eh?

WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Department of Housing and Urban Development and the mayors of Atlanta, Detroit and Miami on Saturday directed their law enforcement agencies to
give preference to Smith & Wesson when buying guns and called on municipal leaders nationwide to follow suit.

So, S&W is 'pleasantly surprised', eh?

Boy ... this fish is getting stinkier by the minute, isn't it?

I'm certainly glad I've been spending a little time over at the MSMagazine forums, where they console us by noting our paranoia and silly concerns about the future ... I feel so much better now.

Gun Control: The proposition that a woman found dead in an alley, raped and strangled with her own panty hose, is more acceptable than allowing that same woman to defend herself with a firearm.

Here's my thoughts on this quid pro quo. My department issues S&W 5906s. I'm turning mine in and I'm going back to carrying the Beretta 92F I carried before we switched to semi-autos. I'll have to buy a new duty holster as I sold the one I used before.

If anyone asks me why I'm not carrying the Smith on duty, I'll be sure and tell them.
