That being said, I am in NC and belong to the NRA and other pro-gun organizations. I am terrified of what is going on at a national level with the amount of states and federal judges ruling against "assault weapon", "high capacity" magazines and military looking firearms. Like most decent people, I am law abiding, pay my taxes, vote and provide for my family. I spent over 20 years serving this great country and I'll be damned if I'm gonna see it go down the toilet. I've seen first hand the results of what governments can do to a population that cannot protect themselves. London for gods sake has banned knives, I have some questions that I could use some common sense answers/insights too.
1. What can I do as a citizen to ensure that my children can still enjoy the same rights that I do? I email and call my representatives and get the standard robot type response.
2. Truly how effective is the NRA at ensuring the above mentioned stuff doesn't get passed, is my money better spend other ways?
3. Is it effective to show up at a meeting like the fine gentlemen did at Greensboro mentioned in other threads?
4. Other than b****ing and whining what else can/should I do?
Thanks
