     Please, Don - there are many of us firearm owners who most emphatically
*DON'T* want to be counted on your side.  Don't count your IC's before
they're twisted.

      I think that your seriously underestimate the number of US citizens
who perceive the groups you stand for as a real threat to freedom.

     It's easy to see communists under every bed when you have prescription
red colored glasses.

     And why all of the rhetoric about freedom of speech, Don?  I've heard
a lot of people who've been appalled, disgusted, outraged, amused or
scared by the things you've posted and the realization that people like
you exist in this country, but I've yet to hear anyone advocating censoring
you.  You don't have a corner on the freedom-loving market, Don.  I've yet
to be convinced that you've ever *seen* a corner of it.
