RHC: Yup !! Nothing is forever, and nothing is totally sacred. There
is absolutely no reason why what you say couldn't happen. And don't
think for a second that the fact that so many  people own firearms in
the US, that they wouldn't try !! Here in Canada, we have a Charter of
Rights and Freedoms passed a few decades ago, and it is fiddled with
from time to time. Your post illustrated my point precisely. DON'T
EVER take the 2nd Amendment for granted. Rights and freedoms must be
continually protected, and a strong national lobby group is the best
way to do that !!....NO....the ONLY way to do that !!

Most of our gun clubs make it mandatory that we belong to the Canadian
Shooting Sports Association. It's a pretty weak outfit, but the best
we can ever hope for in this damn gun hating country. It has managed
to shoot down a few of the more extreme proposals over the last while,
but it doesn't have the clout that your NRA has

I just recently joined the USPCA competitive action shooting
organization in the States so that I can take advantage of the huge
prizes awarded to their membership when they win matches. I fully
intend to join the NRA as a foreign member as well. Surely every
American gun owner can pony up the few bucks it takes to protect your
ownership rights......(cripes, this sounds like a membership drive and
I'm not even a US citizen....:((...).
