If 80 million gun owners won't vote for their Rights instead of their pocketbooks like the union member, dem voting deer hunters seem to do, they don't deserve their Rights.
If 80 million gun owners voted for their Rights, we wouldn't have gun control.

The challenge was there before the 2000 election. Stop the Bill before it reaches his desk. I am not going to absolve the lazy gun owners for their lack of responsibility.

I agree that many don't get off their duff to vote. It's wrong and it's pathetic. However, many of us do vote and we voted for the GOP and against gun control, but that hasn't stopped the GOP from allowing it to happen on their watch anyway.

The fact remains that even though (some of) we didn't actively protect our rights, the government with the GOP in the lead is proactively stripping us of them. And it's intolerable and unforgiveable.
