After the last set of horrible gun laws were signed into law here a few months ago, some private individuals (I think maybe led by the Pink Pistols, not sure) decided to put referenda on the November ballot to get them overturned. Petitions were available at all the gun stores and ranges. Sadly, the email I got from the NRA today said we did not get enough signatures to get the referenda on the ballot.
While I doubt the inconvenience dissuaded many potential signers, it was pretty unwieldy to have to sign seven separate petitions. The day I went to sign, everybody else in the gun store good-humouredly (sp?) signed all seven also.
Anybody have any thoughts as to how the atmosphere could be improved here, or is this a sign that it's more or less hopeless?
