Note that Australia's response to a mass shooting was a much stricter ban on assault weapons than we had here from 1994 to 2004. It also worked.

I remember Rod making fun of the people who went out and bought guns after Obama's election and re-election.

But after the recent events in CT, weren't those people ultimately correct? At first chance, liberals jump to ban guns or restrict access to them when politically expedient.

When asked "where he was" on the issue for the past four years by a Fox News reporter, the President basically said he was "busy".

The "Misc & other Astronomy" classified section is getting very crowded by all the sponsor adds. Normally this section requires quite a bit of browsing to find an item of interest but now it is getting to be a chore to flip through page after page of sponsors to find the adds. Any chance of starting a "Sponsors" section only to keep the " Misc & other Astronomy" section easy to use?
Thanks
Rex

PS: Would you want your girl friend learning how to shoot with a .357 magnum as her first gun? Know what the kick is like with one? (Not to mention the noise)...
