More good news: Wal*Mart announces that it will no longer sell firearms or ammo to persons under 21, as does Kroger (which owns some Fred Meyer stores that sell such). Big Business has a way of co-opting government intervention, which tendency can make the more capricious actions of state legislatures and Congress from taking more radical measures.
