Thanks, Democrats, for Making Deer Hunting More Expensive in Pennsylvania

The Beaver County (Penn.) Times reported on January 9, 2010:

"Local ammunition dealers say the cost of bullets has shot up, annoying gun owners and law officers.

And a person need not look further than the shelves at Shooter’s Place in Fallston to see that bullets are scarce.

Bob Bernhardy, owner of Shooter’s Place for 10 years, said he usually stocks and sells plenty of ammunition, but these days having enough ammo in stock is hit or miss. His shelves, he said, are half-empty.

“I’ve never seen it like this in my entire life,” he said.

Bernhardy says it wasn’t until the 2008 presidential election that supplies disappeared and prices spiked.

“As sure as I’m standing here and God is my judge, it was the last election,” he said."
