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! |

TO REMEMBER |
| Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
