There is some indication that a few people are waking up (first time gun sales are up), but I don't see any great push to freedom. Unfortunately, I see a lot of evidence to the contrary. The unquestioning acceptance of the so called "anti-terrorism" bill with it's unconstitutional expansion of the federal gestapo's search powers is one example. The usual suspects in Kongress like Blajagovitch (sp?) and Waxman pushing anti-gun legislation and saying that terrorists buy guns at gunshows. Personally it wouldn't hurt my feelings if some real terrorist capped a few of these jerks.
