Gun Sales Bring in Big Dollars for States

Where is the news that firearm sales are bringing in money to states that really could use it? Only the Detroit Free Press has picked up on this noting:

“A federal tax collected on firearms and ammunition sales is redistributed to wildlife and hunting programs in each state, and only three — Alaska, Texas and Pennsylvania — get more money than the $17 million Michigan is expecting this year: $6 million more than last year’s record.” 

We’ll have to wait and see if the rest of the mainstream media up on this story.
