Nice artlicle, makes some good points.

One of the telling ones, IMO, is that America really is getting to a point where gun ownership, and the pleasure of it, is often looked on today as something a little odd, even unhealthy.

And the point that the Bill of Rights do not list all of our rights is important.

Cool magazine, BTW, hadn't heard of it before.

I had a dinner party a few weeks ago and the subject of firearms came up. One of our guests was aghast when she found out that I actually owned a few of them. ....just stared at her plate the rest of the night.

Unfortuantely, I'd imagine her sentiments aren't exactly rare.

That is why I have started to believe that it is important for as many of us that are able to go out and purchase and own guns. Only after a generation or two of suburban kids growing up in an atmosphere of guns will they once again come to view guns as normal and useful.
