If you don't mind, I'll try to explain it to you.
There was a pesky little occurance in Loisiana about 19 months ago. It seams that President Bush knew of an impending huuricane that was about to make landfall in the Gulf of Mexico. So he dispatched the Navy SEALS to blow up the levees and seawalls in New Orleans in order to flood the cities and kill the residents.
To cause further mayhem, riots, murder, looting, and rape in the city, he ordered Mayor Nagin to confiscate all weapons from the citizenry. Now the Mayor's police chief did not conduct a door to door poll asking each resident who owned a firearm. The police went through firearms REGISTRATIONS and targeted those residents to confiscate their firearms and violated their Second Amendment Rights.
I'll let you sift through my sarcasm.
Firearms owners and those who believe in the Constitution do not want firearms registered It is the first step in disarming the citixenry.
And I'll be damned if anyone is going to take my collection of these:
One of my $2,500.00 self defense weapons.
And when the gangs begin to infiltrate your neighborhood, you will be thankfull that people like me are in a position to protect you and your family from being murdered.
There is an ammo shortage in this country because thinking Americans are hoarding ammunition to protect themselves.
"Just dial 911."
Just my $.02.
