My personal opinion about guns... I don't like them. I'm afraid of them. I have no interest in shooting. I defend to the death for the right of citizens to legally own them. I think government needs to mind its business and allow us our freedoms. I applaud the NRA for (pardon the pun) sticking to their guns with regard to gun control. If they give an inch, the whole thing eventually falls apart. I hope the Cigar Rights of America (CRA) grows stronger and learns something from the NRA. {Antnee steps down from soap box}
And I fully agree with every thing you have said. While I support the GOA over the NRA what you say about the NRA is true. Could care less if anyone personally likes or dislikes guns just leave mine alone and either live with our constitution and the rule of law or move to a country that has a system more suitable to your likings.
Amendment II
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
The Bill of Rights was approved on December 15th, 1791. At that time, pistols and rifles were single shot flintlocks. The idea of multi-shot weapons, not to mention automatic weapons, was not even a dream. And remember, the most conservative judge on the Supreme Court is Antonin Scalia, who firmly believes in interpreting the Constitution "AS IT WAS WRITTEN". Oh, and btw, I am a multiple gun owner. Just sayin'.
