Greg, when I write some of the things that I wrote in my first post when involved in a debate over the 2nd amendment, there's always someone who disagrees and calls me an extremist. First off, freedom is in itself and extreme concept, and its opposite extreme is slavery. The question, then, is which do you prefer and why? I'll take dangerous freedom over peaceful slavery any day (paraphrase).

If supporting the right to keep and bear arms, as it has always been referred to since its inception in this nation, makes me an extremist then that's a badge I'll proudly wear. And yeah, I can hear some of you folks saying "We don't need no stinkin' badges!"
