Maybe if enough of us "retire" from attending gun shows, things would change? The "anti gun" folks don't have to do anything to close the "gun show loophole," they can just sit back and let greed and bovine scathology do their work for them. I stopped going a number opf years ago after being confronted by a semi-circle of cold stares when, instesd of repeating their little mantra about not being armed, I responded that I was in compliance with their rule. I was saying that I didn't agree with their requirement, but I was defering to their request, in order to enter their ballroom of balistic blowhards. Oh, they didn't like/understand what I had said, and even after admitting me to the "show," still unsure of "what that meant" continued, with hands hovering at their hips, to follow me around the floor, where we repeated the same phrases back and forth, when finally I told them to leave me alone, or arrest me. which they could not, even if I was armed, because what they were doing constituted a request. What really confused them was when I asked them how their "no gun" thing would work if I was one of the sellers-lots of mumbling and staring at the floor, and these were LEO's-the city, not the county-really lame. And then aftyer paying way too much, There was nothing in there that Caj, or anyone else above would have taken home. Lots of folks with glued on smiles that were immediately threatened if you even seemed like you might know which end the bullet came out. That's why I like the forum or GB to buy or sell. It is real.
