On this net, that is near herisy, or perhaps blasphemy. :-[ Sigh. Just remember net rule #1) You are always guilty by association. and net rule #2) You are always associated with something that the opposing viewpoint knows you don't like. SERIOUSLY! The issue of firearms has been beaten to death multiple times.
