Re: “UPDATE: Nate Bell shoots from lip on Boston violence; Speaker Carter apologizes for him; Bell apologizes for 'timing'”
Yeah, I know I'd feel much better if I knew some dipweed in the apartment next door had, not just any gun, but an AR-15 with high capacity magazine, on the ready for any strange noises. The very thought of it gives me a false sense of warmth and security. What could possibly go wrong?
Re: “UPDATE: The House defeats Medicaid expansion appropriation”
Arkansas politics in a nutshell (emphasis on "nut"), the land of the 3/4th supermajority vote (along with the asylum known as Oklahoma) and almost worthless executive veto power (along with the great states the likes of Alabama, Tennessee and Kentucky)
Re: “Little Rock records sixth homicide”
Could be worse, Tulsa is already at 24 homicides. Thank goodness for those strict Oklahoma gun laws or it would be so much worse?
Re: “Speaker Davy Carter's got game — nobody loves guns more”
Hey, why not? Gov. Beebe and the Arkansas Economic Development Commission helped bring the U.S. corporate headquarters and distribution operations for Walther Arms and Umarex USA to Fort Smith:

"Umarex USA's products are marketed under the following brand names: RWS, Walther, Hämmerli, Beretta, Smith & Wesson, Browning, Heckler & Koch, Ruger, Desert Eagle, RAM and Colt"
Re: “Missy Irvin pushes nanny state attack on tattoo parlors”
Welp, now that Benton County is wet, the good folks in Pineville, Missouri can now replace their liquor stores with tattoo parlors to go with Club Hotz. And Misty Forsberg will have to move next door to the Choctaw Casino in Pocola, Oklahoma, literally across the street from Fort Smith. Good work, Missy "job creator" Irvin!
Re: “Mark Darr: no regrets, Gov. Beebe is 'not my boss'”
Darr gives himself away with that last line:
"if he wants to give me statewide coverage ... hey, let's keep it going!"
Hey everybody, look at me!!!

Re: “Tom Cotton burnishes his warhawk image”
I honestly don't get the fascination with Cotton. Is it just his bombastic rhetoric? In terms of policy, legislation or intellectual substance, what has he done to earn any attention?
