Jim, I'm certain that's exactly why canvasback posted the link to the website in his original post in this thread:
http://www.idontcarryaknife.org/knife-crime/what-do-i-doYou are quite correct that many gun owners are complacent and also feel that if we give the anti-gunners our black rifles or high capacity magazines, they will go away and not bother our doubles and conventional rifles. But we've seen time and time again that if we give an inch, they will take a mile.
Hoot4570 is very fortunate that nobody turned him in for simply possessing a pocket knife on his trips to Great Britain. The penalty could have been 4 years in prison and a fine of 5000 pounds.
This is where we are headed if we simply sit back and do nothing and say nothing. But just two years ago, we stuck together and made our voices heard. We called our representatives and record numbers of new members joined the NRA. We got the attention of Congress and the Senate and gave Obama his most stinging defeat.
We can rest on our laurels and lose, or we can make our voices heard again. The anti-gun trolls will always be with us. Best thing we can do is to out them every chance we get. The thing they hate the most is their own words. That is why they are so happy that Misfires has been sequestered. Next is making it known how much they cry to Dave for censorship to protect their anti-gun heroes.
