Things are different now.

I personally know literally dozens of guys who had no interest in guns of ANY kind until Clinton said they couldn't have them. Now they are 2A hardliners and black rifle addicts.

I met one of those guys in 1994 at a local range. He said that he never owned a weapon in his life but when the feds wanted to take AR's, hi-cap magazines and semi-auto shotguns away from him as a law-abiding citizen, he went out and bought all three. I laughed for weeks, but was damn glad that some folks still have brains.

"I personally know literally dozens of guys who had no interest in guns of ANY kind until Clinton said they couldn't have them. Now they are 2A hardliners and black rifle addicts."

I never owned a semi-automatic rifle until Clinton became our president and moved congress to pass the AWB. I ran up my credit cards buying rifles and high-capacity magazines. I also made many aware of the ramifications of the AWB and the slippery downslope that follows.

I also personally signed up over three dozen NRA members in the mid-90's, about a 1/3 are still members and are now hard-core. Now that the dim's have power AND are clamoring for more gun-laws, I am going the get the NRA 1-800 # handy to sign up new members. The only thing these idiot politicians understand are millions of pissed off one-issue voters.
