In Arizona: Arizona State Senator Pointed a Loaded Gun at a Reporter's Chest

What is it with guns and Arizona? It's like ice and cream to them. Well, in today's foolishness, State Senator Lori Klein thought she would be cute to point a loaded gun at a reporter.

Arizona state Sen. Lori Klein (R), a gun-rights champion, keeps a loaded raspberry-pink handgun in her purse, and during an interview with Arizona Republic reporter Richard Ruelas, she took it out and pointed it at him.

"Oh, it's so cute," Klein said, before aiming the gun at Ruelas's chest to show off the red beam of the laser sight. Klein's gun, a .380 Ruger, has no safety, but the senator assured Ruelas that he wasn't in danger. 

"I just didn't have my hand on the trigger," she said.

Klein told the Arizona Republic that she owns a number of guns and has had "informal" training sessions on each of them, and that she was taught gun safety by her father.

I think she needs to be reprimanded for this.
