Thanks countertop; keep checking the site and calling the local AM radio shows, asking them to help keep the gun rights issue at the forefront.

SayUncle, you mentioned that there are bigger and better fish for me to fry than GunGuys. I’m like a Rottweiler on a sirloin, just let me know who to go after.

Thanks!

Sebastian – if you can get the Dems to move on this issue, you stand a chance of picking up my vote (at least on occaision). Of course, Northern Virginia Republicans leave a lot to be desired as well.

The big thing here in MD is going to be shaming the antigun legislators like Brian Frosh, who chairs the Judiciary Committee, into not suppressing a vote on progun bills.

He’s very safe in his seat, won with 72% of the vote. He can slough off a few of the Republican agitators, but if we can protect some progun Democrats, and encourage more of them to come out of the woodwork, we can apply some internal pressure to keep the votes moving forward on important bills.

No problem. enjoyed the blog so far. But on the gun guys, there are more useful idiots in the press:

there’s a lot.
there easy to find.
they matter.

Hey, thanks for linking my site!

I’ve heard a couple folks saying that the gunguys are best ignored; part of me likes the Jeffersonian notion of not letting any untruth stand unchallenged.

The other thing with that boob is that he’s a useful idiot. He continually uses the same tired, unsubstantiated argument; undercutting it shows the strength of our position. If it wasn’t him, it’d be some other idiot =).

Thanks!
