I'm not a gun owner and I don't hunt but I strongly support the 2nd Amendment. Why? Because the 2nd Amendment really has little to do with hunting. Its purpose is to ensure that the people have the means to take back to government from a tyrant should that ever become necessary.

Still, I'm more than happy that GWB has the support of hunters.

Nothing demonstrates this better than Chicago's mayor. All guns are banned in that city, and corruption is rampant.

Exactly...ask the Germans how the Nazi's started out. You eliminate the ability of a people to defend themselves and voila...your job as a fascist dictator just got easier.
