Where was he quoted directly, not indirectly.
All I am saying is that all that stuff has to be documentable.
Sheriff Brown is quoted in a post above:

Brown has received some public backlash for his strict scrutiny of permit applications, even though he made it clear during his election campaign that “my policy would be to issue licenses sparingly,” he said. “I've had a few letters from people who were pro-guns and were disappointed in my position.”

These folks really can't come up with something better than mailing out a survey? So Clinton or Rudy or Obama could potentially get an A from this sub-division/affiliate/whatever of the NRA?
