Great article, and I, too, am proud to see Americans standing up and taking responsibility for their safety. I think the idea of gun control has grown into such a losing proposition that even the mention of it by the media results in a steep drop in ratings within a minute of the mention. To boot, even politicians, outside of the regular cabal of anti-gunners, are realizing that talk of banning guns or ammunition means a loss of respect and likely votes at the ballot box.
I’m proud to be an American in a country where a single madman can go on a rampage killing a dozen people and the next day gun stores have lines outside before they even open.
This is the quintessential American experience.
And kudos to the author for mentioning the Powder Alarm. The Feds would be remiss to try something like that lest they be pushed back by a very well-armed populace.
I purchased another gun yesterday. Small 380 for when I can’t take my 9mm. While I was there, there was about 5 seperate people come in and ask about the purchasing process and the concealed carry license process. It was actually cool to see.
