One of the best articles I've read about the divide between gun owners and anti-gunners. (although it starts a little slow)

Very well written piece. His e-mail address is at the top of the post. I sent him a brief message thanking him for a great oped piece.

That is very likely the single best article I have ever read on the subject.

Nicely written, well reasoned opinion piece. It's a shame it's his swan song. I wish him well as he leaves the halls of academia for the workaday world.

Thanks for the post. I very seldom read something that I agree with completely, but this article is absolutely correct.

Gun people don’t trust anti-gun people because they are purposely misleading to rile the emotions of the ignorant.
Just like they do on every other subject. Seen granny in the wheelchair being pushed over the cliff lately? Unfortunately, the ignorant buy it just about every time.

I knew it would be appreciated here. I was cheering my screen.

I don't think anything firearms related crosses the interwebs without them noticing, AND he is pulling up roots in New England and moving to Austin this summer.
