ask clinton and the democrats what lost them the house and senate in 94, then ask the democrats the same thing now.

I do not expect any radical gun control bills to come along until either before or after '10 elections.

Funny that you would say that since I probably have more guns than you do, that is what you get when you don't really know all the facts. Discount what I agreed with but the history is there for anyone to see, if they really wanted to. Sure there have always been anti-gun people, it is their right to disagree, thing is they have not been successful and I doubt they will be, being the nature of the people of this nation. So, POOPOO it away all you want, does not change the facts, the reality is what it is.

I quit NRA because they were not telling me the truth. Why should I pay them to lie to me??? If you still do, then the phrase, "useful tool" comes to mind.
I see you are doing the NRA the same way I am AARP and for the same reason.

BTW, could you point me toward an old WWII or Korean War grease gun? I need something to hold THEM back when they come after my non-existant guns, well it will remain that way till I get that 45 caliber spray gun.

I am letting my NRA membership expire. I am not calling them to cancel or anything like that. I am not mad at them, I just don't want to fund them anymore.

Why does it have to be WW-II or Korea era? Why not an AR-15? Light, small caliber, high velocity, large magazine and US made. And you can get one for $700 and ammo ia available everywhere. I'm getting one if I get a tax return. It'll help you keep the coyotes off your back yard.

The last Silver Certificate ( $1 denomination) was replaced with a Federal Reserve Note in 1963.

That's because I'm not a pin-head.

Well then, what else do you call a gun owner who is anti-pro gun advocacy group, but a big government advocate?

At a minimum you are talking out of both sides of the mouth with the rest of the disingenuous liberals on this thread.

LOL
You didn't describe me at all.
I think you are confusing me with somebody else.

Why am I not surprised?
Too funny!

That's because half the citizens of the country threaten to go to war against the government when they even suggest more gun control. The "man" is just too scared to try and push the issue.

I think people are more educated too, and FINALLY realize more laws won't really make them safer, just less free.

Clearly you are willingly ignorant of repeated verifiable attempts to restrict or prohibit gun ownership and catagorizing such efforts as "fear mongering" puts you right into the pinhead catagory.
