It's not like they are just asking about how many pets you have in your home. Nobody's suggesting a mass confiscation of Persian Kittens ... at least not yet.

I just think that human nature is such, that if something has an artificial moral value attached to it and is perceived as "not popular", they just keep their mouth shut. Like smokers that claim they quit years ago ... but the inside of their car still smells like a Lucky Strike factory.

If they perceive something is very popular, they tend to speak out a little more. "Why yes, I exercise for an hour every single day and I eat healthy too".

When we have credible, senior level political figures openly discussing "Australian Style" gun control as a possibility, they're going to clam up to anyone that calls with even vaguely related gun questions.

PS: I'm still waiting for my free NRA guns and ammo. It's been years and their Good Humor style truck hasn't come down my street handing them out to every man, woman and child, especially the smaller children. I keep listening for the bells and the music (I assume it will be "Cat Scratch Fever" on those little jingly bells) and ... nothing.

I feel cheated, dammit!

Wouldn't that be disagreeing with mandates? N/T beevul Sep 2016 #50

I doubt very much the OP and his second banana care for *this* quote from Jonathan Mossberg: friendly_iconoclast Sep 2016 #47

If he returns to tout the Electro-Mossberg again, be sure to remind him of Mossberg's own words friendly_iconoclast Sep 2016 #49

Now who could that quote be from? Duckhunter935 Sep 2016 #53
