Opinions? I particularly like the portion about the "gun show loophole", as well as the supposed "gun expert" apparently if you wear a glock hat you are an expert?

This Writer Carol McCraken seems a little sexist to me... "About seventy-five men openly carrying guns attended a rally this afternoon at Back Cove"... i'm pretty sure there were at least15-20 woman there and most carrying...

“We didn’t want to add to the publicity of the event,” said Franklin, explaining why the ten year old “MCAHV” did not participate in the rally... Most hunters have no more interest in brandishing their guns in public than they do in walking naked in public.”

Do tell Franklin... who was brandishing?? Fairly sure all firearms were holstered... Good use of inflammatory speech I suppose. :banghead:

Want to keep track of what "Maine Citizens Against Handgun Violence" (MCAHV) is doing? Sign up for their newsletter on the following link - hint use a new screen name and don't engage them - just an info source for what the dark side is doing. [size=]http://www.mcahv.org/

Nationally these anti groups are losing strength and effectiveness at an astounding rate, but good to watch them so as to be better prepared to respond.

Yata hey
