All the More Reason to Visit Arizona

Travel icon Arthur Frommer says he won't be spending his tourism dollars at the Grand Canyon, or anywhere else in Arizona, because the state's laws allow people he described as "thugs" and "extremists" to openly carry firearms.

The author of budget-travel guides said on his blog Wednesday that he was "shocked beyond measure" by reports that protesters openly carried guns and rifles outside a Phoenix building where President Barack Obama spoke on Monday.
No, but you can buy a Frommer's guide to L.A. and Detroit where someone could bust a cap on yo' ass anytime.

They wouldn't do it in Arizona, though. Because their, the citizens carry guuuuuuunnnnssssss!

Wait, didn't Obama just spend his tourism dollars at the Grand Canyon? Oh, that's right - he spent ours.

Never bought a Frommer's Guide - but as I am a "thug" and an "extremist", I don't expect to anytime soon. 'Sides, I get 'em free at AAA with my membership. And there's this thing called the Internet, Arthur . . .
