This is kinda surprising to me...

Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal has vetoed a bill that would have made possession of a firearm within 1,000 feet or a parade route, or permitted demonstrations a crime.

No, I'm not surprised that he vetoed it.

I'm surprised that the Louisiana Legislature passed it in the first place. If you've ever been to a Mardi Gras parade, or seen some of the morons that "demonstrate" in this neck of the woods, then you'd know that packing a firearm is a very good idea!

However, if you're stupid enough to go to a Mardi Gras parade...well, maybe you shouldn't actually own something with a bang-bang switch anyway...
