Howdy Seth,
You do raise a good point to consider.
Human Rights and The Right To Bear Arms are two topics I treat seriously and consider important topics to keep in the conversation.
I don't do a lot of "gun talk" but am interested in the subject you raised and in various aspects of the many elements of "protecting ones family & self."
Maybe the (another) forum topic could be one of "Survivalist Skills or Topics" that the gun subject would also fit within.
I am interested in the many aspect (and the amazing amount) of cool Survivalist information that is being developed and disseminated to the general public if one just looks for it a little bit.
