Even in libertarian, purple New Hampshire, there are dedicated
anti-gunners. The same people tend to be soft on career criminals and
hard on legal gun owners. Three examples are former State Senator Burt
Cohen, from the wealthy island enclave of New Castle, and Rockingham
County District Attorney James Reams — a man with legal problems of his
own, who has been in and out of office fighting credible charges of corruption — and Assistant DA Terri Harrington. (For a pro-Reams view of the charges, see this editorial at the Democratic-partisan and editorially anti-gun Seacoast Online. Reams is an elected, nominally nonpartisan officer).
Cohen’s preference, based on his words and deeds at the time, would
have been to ban all guns; instead he got what he could get through the
legislature before his retirement in 2005. That was a
reasonable-sounding law criminalizing any gun owner whose gun was
accessed by a minor and accidentally or negligently discharged.
