Don't be so sure. People are tired of being told that the government can play with our rights. If the 2nd Amendment goes, so do all the others. I choose to stand now rather than later. Now, I can do something about it, later, I'll wonder why I didn't do something if I don't now.

To you, it may not be the end all issue but to the rest of us, it is. I will not abide by any more trampling of my 2nd Amendment rights. There are three things you don't mess with regarding a man. his car and home, his woman, and especially his guns.

OK, This is probably not the time to have a civil conversation,,,,,LOL!, but let me pose a question regarding "trampled". Bear in mind, that I own guns as well.

Other than some hoops to jump through regarding purchase and sale of the guns most of us enjoy owning, what has been trampled on thus far and why would passing a clean, unaltered extension of the AWB legislation trample further on those rights.

I see the attempts to do so frequently, but those measures just have not been passed by both houses.

We do not control the Senate as some believe, and so we see this today, but I saw it coming long ago.

IMO, this dies this year and will become a issue again next year. I see no reason to panic, blame bush, Rove and the administration for this continual political wrangling that was/is/will continue with those who just plain hate guns.
