I agree. likwid, we just can't seem to sing from the same page. We've been divided and conquered by our own government.

We've been divided and conquored as outdoorsmen, that's the problem. I fish, but don't spear fish; I bowhunt, but don't use a gun, I hunt with a bolt-action rifle, not a semi; I fish from the rocks, not the beach, etc., etc., etc.
Well, we've made our bed, now we have to sleep in it. Is it more important to get some relaxation or to stand shoulder to shoulder with your brethern? We all know the answer.
98% of gun owners aren't in members of the NRA because half of them have guns that are rusting away in a gun case under the bed that have been forgoten and the other half think that the goverment is going to stop before "their" guns are made illegal.
Any goverment action against any of us should cause immediate action from all of us. But . . . we're all too comfortable for that. There's too much to lose.
