L. Brown:
I agree with much of what you said above. But I'll state that my primary reservation is with no "gun owners" are against the 2nd Amendment. This is primarily a double gun hunting forum and the trolls that do post here want the rest of our gun owning rights severely curtailed. The trolls will argue all day that there's no way the 2nd Amendment can be abolished but that isn't necessary to severely curtail our rights. It can easily be crippled by making those rights more and more restrictive until many give up as it's just too difficult to acquire a firearm. I believe you can actually get a pistol permit in NYC if you want to expend a couple of years of your time and spend hundreds of dollars to do so. Ditto for Washington DC.
The Supreme Court with 8 members currently would in all likelihood split 4 - 4 on the individual right to keep and bear arms were it to come up today. If A gun grabber like Clinton is elected you can be sure the 9th appointment would join the other 4 in overturning the ruling on this right.
So is it important that everyone stay as current as possible insofar as what's going on in this area? I firmly believe this is the case and that's why I post firearms related information some of which in NOT in the regular news.
I've never cared to win any kind of "popularity contest" on this forum and will continue to post information that I think the membership here want's to know even if some of the more "astute" members like Hause are so knowledgeable they have no need for it.
If he or his cabal of toadies don't like what I post on this subject then don't read it. It's as simple as that.
