I hate to rain on everyone's parade, but all this self congratulations and excitment on the AWB Ban Sunset is a bit premature. Kerry/Edwards is still a serious threat, and a very real one, whether you want to see it or not. Most gun people are only talking to the choir - each other. We need to all push our comfort zones a bit and be active in our families, workplaces and social groups to stop Kerry. If Bush supporters believe the media and back off now, with the REPORTED margins in some battleground states at 3-4%, we can still lose this thing.
Kerry and Co. have been very busy voter registering all the young, impressionable minds on every College (and High School 18yr olds) they can, sort of a "Get'em while they're still too dumb to understand" Crusade, if you will. And they are targeting what they see as "their kind of voters" - young women 18-33 who will buy the Anti-War argument to vote for Kerry.
And a lot of otherwise normal Bush voters will stay home and sit on their hands or not bother to vote due to moral ambiguity over the unfortunately but necessary unpleasantness in the Middle East - many just don't understand we never could avoid this fight with Radical Islam, and that Bush is right. This is WAR, in caps, folks, and it must be won.
Unfortunately, It's 1939 again, evil is on the march once again, things look scary- the "Let's just be Isolationists. Hitler and Hirohito don't concern us, Margaret" mentality at work. And this generation has a lot less on the ball than the "Greatest Generation" did. Pearl Harbor this time could be a nuclear device in a major city.
Keep the Pressure On! Talk to your family, particularly hunters, etc, about gun bans, gun companies being sued out of existance by a Kerry Attorney General, a Supreme Court with Schumer, Clinton(s), etc on it for life, etc. George Soros will get his money's worth out of Kerry - One World, the Liberal/Socialist way, if we don't do our part to stop it.
I'll celebrate the end of the AWB when we've finally driven a stake through it's heart by putting these Liberal idiots out of power again.
Warmly, Col. Colt
