You might want to set your DVRs?
Check your local listings-Southern VA Comcast shows it on @ 8:30pm to 9:30pm tonight on channel 4/WBRA and 11pm to 12 midnight on channel 3/WUNC
Nothing @ Need To Know site now but teasers-I assume after the show airs you'll be able to see it online (along with segments not shown on TV)?
Might not hurt to have some duct tape handy in case your head explodes :banghead: as I see from their site (bold italics mine):
How do gun owners really feel about gun control?
April 30th, 2010
Members of the National Rifle Association and, say, residents of the Upper West Side of Manhattan might disagree on certain aspects of gun control legislation. But as Republican pollster Frank Luntz tells Need to Know, they’re actually much closer than you think. Luntz surveyed gun owners on their attitudes toward what he calls “common-sense gun legislation” and got some surprising results.
You can find a copy of the poll, which was commissioned by the pro-gun control group Mayors Against Illegal Guns, here.

VCDL EM and his daughter featured on PBS tonight!
******************************************
VCDL EM and his 12-year-old daughter are featured on PBS's "Need to know" tonight (check your local listings)! The VCDL name will probably also be prominent in the piece.
EM sent this email to the EMs this morning:
As a gun owner and gun right's advocate, I was contacted by a new PBS web/TV news magazine about doing a story. I agreed. It started off with an Open Carry Litter pick-up on Route 7 under the Adopt-a-Highway program, followed by lunch at a Restaurant in Reston and then to a local shooting range with a NY Camera crew that have never fired a gun before. (They left with GUNS Save Lives Magnets, VCDL Magnets and GUNS Save Lives Safety Vests!) I even wore my VCDL T-shirt.
The next day the crew was at my house bright and early to watch my family at breakfast. They interviewed my 12 year old daughter and then a 1 hour interview with me in my living room. Later that day they followed me to get my haircut (one customer did not like my Open Carrying) and continued to follow me to the store to pick up some more Tactical pants and getting fuel for my car.
Finally, they followed me while unarmed at the Second Amendment March in DC.
I will be on the new shows premiere on Friday, May 7th on PBS (check your local listings for time and channel) I am told the piece will be 12-14 minutes and what they don't show will be available on the web.
EDIT: I downloaded and skimmed the poll (13 page PDF) and what I gather from a quick read is if NRA members are "nuts" like some portray us, then the majority of Americans must also be since poll results for NRA and non-NRA members are close. 'Course, it will be interesting to see how King Michael and his minions spin it?
As usual, if I were asked some of the questions on the poll I'd have to ask for clarification before answering.
