Big Guy, I too am still shaking the sand out of my hair. In the late 60's and early 70's I wore the uniform because I believed in this country. I have never stopped believing. I just got ground down over time by those that are far more liberal than I, and I slowly backed away from the discussions and let the sand cover my ears. I am coming to the conclusion that it is time to get my head out of it and (figuratively) put that uniform on again. Those of us who have been silent for too long need to speak up, lead by example, discuss - not argue, and take the time to help educate those willing to be educated. Speak up - not just on the 2nd amendment, but in all those issues that you feel are bringing our country down. You can start by communicating your feelings to your representatives and to the committee members that are looking at the 2nd amendment related bills especially in Texas right now, but also in Washington.

I also thank all of the TSRA and the NRA for their efforts on our behalf - and especially you, Chas for not only your efforts but also for doing so much for keeping us informed.
