I had wanted to post A LONG TIME AGO to this thread, but just didn’t have the time. There was a discussion on the previous forum that I restrained myself from adding my two cents worth to as well. I’ll be brief:

To me it’s simple. This country was founded on the idea of LIBERTY being of utmost importance. The limited government we are SUPPOSE to have was a very precious gift brought about by our Founding Fathers and it should be considered as such. With this freedom, comes responsibility… individual responsibility. As government becomes more entrenched in our daily lives, people become more and more dependent on the government. It evolves into supposed entitlements. The government becomes more restrictive, we lose our freedom I don’t think the NRA goes far enough. Conservation is important. But I think so many people are so short sighted that they don’t really think about the fact that we have only had this country for 200 years. We take our freedoms for granted. Please do yourselves a favor and read:
“The 5000 Year Leap” by W. Cleon Skousen
“The Founders’ Second Amendment” by Stephen P. Halbrook
I could go on but I have to get back to work 🙂
