I'm putting this here for purpose of getting this message out.
Before I get started, I want to make it clear that this is not a "moral" or "rights" argument. This is to encourage a "lock your door when you leave your house" policy. Meaning, this has nothing to do with rights and responsibilities and everything to do with exposing one's self to unwanted trouble from the bad guys.
The issue is that it seams as though the firearm industry is trying to market on this recent "zombie" media craze in rather disturbing ways. Namely Horniday's zombie ammo marketing but other stuff as well.
The gun grabbers may be on the defensive now but they're not defeated and they WILL hit back hard if you leave them a good opening.
It's only a matter of time before some nutcase takes this zombie killing fad to the extreme and mows a few people down. And when that happens, the first thing the gun grabbers are going to do is look for any way they can lay the blame on the firearm industry and with all this real ordnance marketed as zombie killers and whatnot is going to amplify any success or chance of success they can get out of it.
Anyway, this is no attack on the industry. I have a gun called "zombie killer" myself and really like it. It's not about that at all. This is just an alert to the arms industry. In a truly free country and free market this should not be an issue. Unfortunately, we live in a time when we need to watch our backs when it comes to things like this and using the zombie fad to market real ordnance doesn't seam like a very wise choice under the present circumstances.
