While I agree with my Opinion Zone colleague, Andrew Ian Dodge, that Rep. Peter King’s proposed gun-control legislation, which would prevent ordinary citizens from carrying guns within 1,000 ft. of members of Congress, is one of the more ludicrous ideas put forth by a congressman in the early days of 2011, I find Andrew’s alternative prescription similarly difficult to swallow.
