More Bigot Eruptions

via Big Media Matt, we get this lovely quote from Barbara Cubin (R-Wyoming)

Cubin, who supports the bill, was complaining about a failed Democratic amendment that would have banned gun sales to drug addicts or people undergoing drug treatment.
“So does that mean that if you go into a black community, you can’t sell any guns to any black person?” she asked.

Eric Muller offers a (possible) gentler interpretaton of this. Look, even if that interpretation is correct (I don't buy it) I still put its level of boneheadedness at about the Moran level.
