NEW VOICE COLUMN UP...

...about Starbucks' new guns-in-the-store policy (basically: you can still bring them, but Starbucks wishes you wouldn't) and how the brethren inevitably find it a violation of their right to menace people in fast food restaurants.

UPDATE. Commenter mortimer2000 looks forward to future expressions of "the oppressed minority victimhood of white gun nuts," including the documentary Red Dots on the Prize.

Also a comment at the Voice (yes, they do get a few, despite their ridiculously unwieldy comment technology) reminded me that I hadn't checked Jeff Godlstein on the subject. Here is his reaction:

I hope for [Schultz's] sake — and for the sake of his “anti-gun customers” who are so offended at the sight of others’ weapons that they will protest what is a Constitutionally-protected right — that no nutjob decides to take Joe Biden up on his advice, buy her/himself a shotgun, and go Grande Caramel Macchiato hunting in all these newly-declared gun free zones. The irony would be too tragic to stomach.

For me, the clumsily-masked desire to see people who don't completely agree with him slaughtered isn't the saddest aspect of this; it's the fist-squeezing someday-you'll-be-sorry pre-teen rage, and the fact that Godlstein has retained it into middle age and found, apparently, thousands of other emotionally stunted readers to share it with. I wonder what the overlap is between Godlstein readers and Men's Rights crybabies.
