There will be no ground gained by the anti's in tough economic times, while I am not saying we can relax the evidance is clear the anti's are not gaining ground with repect to broad gun control. They will however milk the use of assault styled weapons in recent killings to score some points. That is why in earlier posts I mentioned it is important for us to be part of the solution rather than precieved as part of the problem.

Well, the polls have Mulcair at 33.6% & he has sworn to bring back the LGR. And while I do agree that hunting is being promoted, some politicians just don't care. They plan to see their ideas go ahead no matter the cost, the antis definitely have a friend in Thomas Mulcair.
