Here's a thought, and I'm drafting my letter now, just in case. Say Obama and Co. take office in January, and in the middle of this economic crisis, start proposing and drafting gun control measures. My response is a letter to my reps in DC and a letter to the editor taking the administration to task for ignoring the real problems for look-good legislation, and also for actually compounding the problem by making business harder for gun companies, resulting in more lost jobs. Ring this bell loud enough, and someone is going to hear it. And, by taking this angle, you might get less of the stereotypical "just another gun nut upset that he can't buy an EBR."
