“Tombstone became famous because of guns,” Escapule, a fourth-generation Tombstone resident, told The Washington Post. Last week, Escapule signed a proclamation declaring Tombstone “America’s Second Amendment City,” making the town, to Escapule’s knowledge, the only one with such title. There’s more to that constitutional right than just carrying and showing off guns, Escapule said. Every October, the town celebrates the Tombstone Helldorado Days, a three-day event packed with street gunfight skits, shows and parades. With a population of about 1,380 people, this Second Amendment City is “in no way, shape or form” going to change, Escapule said.
