Just saw this thread for the first time today. My, my. Thanks for calming it down, Lee, but I, for one, certainly understand how high emotions can, and in my view SHOULD run when it comes to attacks on our freedoms. We now have an administration that has vowed to attack not only the Second Amendment, but the First, i.e., the one they've always held so high and holy, with attempts at resurrection of the grossly misnamed "Fairness Doctrine," of which Richard Nixon was so fond.
To Tony, and to anyone else, I'd suggest immediately joining NRA, as well as the Second Amendment Foundation and the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms. These organizations fight for our rights, and if you are a new gun owner, they will keep you up to speed better than anyone about what the tyrants in D.C. are trying to do to us, with written publications and e-mail alerts.
Welcome to new gun ownership, Tony, and to the Forum. Try not to hold it against anyone here who expresses passion about the Second Amendment. (Even Wyatt is really a good guy, despite his occasional abruptness.
) Most of us have recently gone on to whatever step on the emotional ladder that lies above the one labeled "Bitter." It's gonna be a rough, ugly ride...
