High Bridge Arms, San Francisco’s last gun shop, to close over new regs

San Francisco’s last gun shop has been a defiant fixture against the liberal city’s suffocating arms policies for more than 60 years, but a new set of regulations is forcing the owners to finally throw in the towel.

No, that seems sad for many reasons SSgt Alex Robinson first for a small business closing and secondly that it seems to be the end of an era going back to the mid-1850's . I hope the crime rate does not shoot up as a result.

That means the population will have to go outside the city to purchase weapons to defend themselves. And the bad guys will continue as usual. It shouldn't take long for the crime rate to increase.

A city ordnance requiring the video taping, and forwarding of all transactions to the police, regardless of whether a crime has been committed. This isn't (just) a 2a issue. This is a 4a issue.

SSgt Alex Robinson I wish I could say I was surprised. But given the way the country is going these days, I'm not. I wish I could say I'm outraged --because that behavior by that city government is reprehensible -- but I'm all out of outrage, what with having used it over the last few years as the erosion of rights and morals in this country continues unabated.

It's sad when any business is regulated out of existence, but in this case it is tragic.

Hopefully The Owner Of The Gun Shop Moved Out Of That Insane Asylum Called California And Moved To A State That Allows Small Gun Shops.
I Think They Are The Best Option For Personal Service.
We Would Welcome Him Here In Pennsylvania We Could Always Use More Small Businesses.
