[QUOTE="ebd10, post: 234760, member: 10760"] So I have to ask; what do we do about it? This is OUR country, it didn't get like this over night, how do we turn back the tide? If you think that it's going to end there, forget it. It won't be long until people that are interested in long range shooting are viewed with suspicion. After all, think of the danger of having people with high powered rifles and the ability to hit dinner-plate-sized targets out past 1000 yards running around? Something you must remember, the people that enacted policies like the aforementioned "zero tolerance about guns" policy do not understand us. They believe that the government is the logical choice to solve the ills of the world. They fear and hate anyone that shows individual initiative enough to learn the discipline of shooting, especially those that have mastered LRH. Why? It's because we remind them that there are people around that can still think and act for themselves, that can provide for their own families, and can walk unafraid through life because they have learned to deal with life's tests as they come up. At best, these people suffer from low self-esteem because they are inadequate. That's why they feel that anyone who shows an independent streak must be controlled. At worst, they know that we have a line that we will not allow the government to cross, and they are doing their best to insure that that independent streak is "educated" out of our children. Sorry for the rant, but this really steams me. OK, I'm better now. [/QUOTE]
