I see a problem in our community, and I think it is high time that we start thinking less of our little niche and look at the big picture - for that is what our enemies are doing, and if we are not careful we shall play right into their hands and be destroyed not so much by their actions, but by our own inactions as a group.
I put together a webpage on this very thing a year or so ago. I won't repeat it all here, but the fact is that when we dis each other we DO play into the hands of the gun grabbers. When your 'saturday night special' somehow becomes lesser, or by owning it in my eyes YOU become lesser because the only thing that *I* shoot are custom sniper rifles ... well.. it is my contention that we have just set it up so that it is easier for the gun grabbers to throw one of us a 'deal' and therefore put a wedge between us as gun owners.
This allows to the incrementalism of gun banning as a whole. You know the old saw about slowly boiling a frog to death and all that...
In any case, nobody has a place to participate in such stupidity. It hurts ALL of us.
Be proud of what you have, shoot well with it, but if you want to keep your OWN arms, then you better not allow yourself to fall into the trap of looking down on others because of THEIR personal choice of arms.
You can read what I wrote on my website about this last year if you are further interested in this. In addition if you agree and have your own websites you can take the join or die flag graphic below or one of the smaller sized ones on the page linked above and place it on your site.
Take care,
Charles
