Gabrielle Giffords In the Wild West

Hawaii’s coffee is Kona
Mexico’s beer is Corona
But Tucson loves Stock
And now owns a used Glock
For the gun culture of Arizona     

Author's note:  News flash--Glocks are now flying off the shelves in Arizona.

We'll never get them regulated appropriately like they did in Australia. So, this is something we are going to be dealing with for a long time. I have to train in Oklahoma periodically, and I have met people who wear guns at work in holsters and some who have a personal arsenal of hundreds of guns. It's not going away.
