New London Shooting

The basics are that a man was shot, he'll live, two guys were arrested one of whom confessed.
After responding to the call that shots were fired at 11:20 p.m., New London police were led to the second-floor apartment at 21 Wightman Road. Police say a search warrant for the residence was obtained, and a search turned up a firearm, ammunition, several ounces of marijuana, about $1,000 in cash and at least five marijuana plants. All items were seized.
You know what it means? Every nickel-and-dime pot dealer can get a gun. The availability is such that guys who sell ounces and handle small amounts of money have guns now, as tools of the trade. It didn't used to be like that, it's a bad trend.
This is the direct result of the gun policies and inneffective gun control laws we've been forced to accept. And those are the direct result of NRA lobbying, political corruption and grass-roots support from gun fanatics.
