It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

“The whole thing was so much you-know-what,” Mr. Sherman said. “I earned the right to have those guns, I bought them and, last but not least, if need be, I can use them.”
We are justified through our faith in the Bill of Rights, the word of our Founding Fathers, and not required to "earn" the right to carry guns. ( A deliberate play on the Lutheran Concordia, making the point very well I think.)

Another "Only One" - this time a former cop.

At least he's making thecattempt to comply with the law and all its hoops. I'll wait till he takes his training course and re-submits his registration application. Till then, he's just another lonely voice wailing about the onerous laws without doing anytrhing to overturn/revise them.

stay safe.
