There is no never-ending threat to your gun rights, keith. Americans are in love with their guns. I've been saying that as long as I've been a member. Michael relates their possession to being armed against citizens. What's to fear?

You're concerned with slippery slopes, one seizure leading to another. How long since a gun grab? When I said Obama wouldn't do it, you called it lulling.The last place I'd look for a voice for disarming America would be on the most distinguished shotgun board anywhere.

Yes, Ed is mischievously stirring things up at times, as we all do in some way, but he's still a loyal and patriotic American to me. It isn't a crime to think differently.

As for GunNutz, the forum I've tried to arouse to action is the pro-gun groups, of which I'm a member. It's discouraging. Last week, discussing the fraternity's malaise about what Ottawa is promising because of massacres, our local gunshop owner threw up his arms and said, "King, I'm done with it, finished, find me a buyer." If you knew Dan, he wasn't kidding.
