Eagle Mtn. Sen. Wants To Remember Utah Gun Inventor

" Senate leaders say they like the idea of honoring the late Utah gun inventor John Moses Browning with a state holiday, but aren't set on having it share a day with the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday.

Sen. Mark Madsen, R-Eagle Mountain , is proposing the holiday for the Ogden inventor of automatic weapons, and paired it with MLK Day to avoid the cost of adding a separate holiday." -SLTrib

Chase's Take: Guns are good, but stop wasting the citizen's of Eagle Mountain's taxpayer dollars with frivolous bill ideas. There are far more important issues that need to be addressed.
