To the exasperation of its opponents, the National Rifle Association has expanded its influence in recent years and pushed an increasingly radical agenda. States have expanded open-carry laws, thanks to NRA pressure, as well as the number of public places where people can carry guns – such as university campuses. Since 2004, 10 states have enacted so-called campus-carry measures, with Kansas set to do so next year.

Ahh, moving from Cali to Alabama 18 months back and catching a breadth of freedom. How intoxicating, freedom, the stuff that has caused revolutions. |

Hey, Sosalty, from a fellow Alabamian, a belated WELCOME! Must be a great relief to be in a free state rather than Commiefornia! |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Those, who have the command of the arms in a country are masters of the state, and have it in their power to make what revolutions they please. [Thus,] there is no end to observations on the difference between the measures likely to be pursued by a minister backed by a standing army, and those of a court awed by the fear of an armed people. — Aristotle, as quoted by John Trenchard and Water Moyle, An Argument Shewing, That a Standing Army Is Inconsistent with a Free Government, and Absolutely Destructive to the Constitution of the English Monarchy [London, 1697]. |
