A reader reacts to an earlier item I had, about policing. He says, “Here in Arizona, concealed carry is common. When stopped by a policeman for having a headlight out, I told him (as legally required to do) that I had a concealed-carry permit and I was carrying. His response, ‘Well, if you don’t pull yours out, I won’t pull mine out.’ I’m sure that on the East Coast, I would have been eating dirt with a police boot in my back.”

You know, Arizona gives a lot of people the heebie-jeebies. Arthur Frommer, the travel guy — and a political activist — is boycotting the place. The more I learn about our 48th state — the more I admire it.
