Mark Kelly, husband of former U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, tried to make a political point recently by purchasing two guns, including an AR-15 assault rifle, at an Arizona gun store. Kelly said he did it to demonstrate how easy it is for someone to buy a gun, as he continues to call for stricter gun control laws.
But now the store’s owner, Doug MacKinlay, is speaking out, announcing he will cancel the purchase because it’s clear Kelly only wants the guns in order to make a political statement.
“While I support and respect Mark Kelly’s 2nd Amendment rights to purchase, possess, and use firearms in a safe and responsible manner, his recent statements to the media made it clear that his intent in purchasing the Sig Sauer M400 5.56mm rifle from us was for reasons other then for his personal use,” MacKinlay said in the statement.Read the rest of the story HERE and watch a related video below:
Doug MacKinlay's store is the Diamondback Police Supply in Tucson, AZ. If you'd like to give him some business.

It's absolutely disgusting the way that Democratic politicians and their friends in the State Run Media are trying to politicize the mass shootings in Tucson, Aurora, Newtown and elsewhere.
I'm sure that many of the victims of these shootings and their family members are avid supporters of our Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms, yet their viewpoint is completely ignored.
Talk about adding insult to injury. It doesn't get any worse than that.
