That can’t be. Not according to author Stephen King.
Multiple gunshot wounds last night at Red Rocks. We regulator booze and tobacco; it's time to regulate firearms.

Whoa. Imagine if we had an agency — perhaps a “bureau” — that focused on alcohol, tobacco and firearms regulations. Mr. King, you’re blowing our minds!
@StephenKing Really? We have the Bureau of Alcohol (check), Tobacco (check), and firearms (check). That seems to cover the aformentioned.

BATFE? “@StephenKing: Multiple gunshot wounds last night at Red Rocks. We regulator booze and tobacco; it’s time to regulate firearms.”

@StephenKing proof of age *ONLY* to buy any strength gun I want? Sure, I'm all for gun purchase = liquor purchase. @TwitchyTeam

@StephenKing Hi. Don't know if you were aware but we have a plethora of gun laws and regulations on the books already.

Oh, he knows. Last year, King published a sanctimonious 8,000 word essay calling for more gun control measures. At least the gun-grabbing gunslinger got the character count down this time.
And hey, he even kind of managed to get in a plug for one of his books. Or a typo. One of those.
@StephenKing We should also regulator auto-correct. It gets in the way of even the most gifted writers. 🙂
