We are always in a fight, just to keep what we already have.

Even if that was true, the childhood story of the boy who cried wolf comes to mind. People can only listen to do much of "the sky is falling" before they lose interest or the speaker loses credibility. I do think there are people out there, some of them in power, that want to take our 2nd amendment rights away. But the (silent) majority of Americans support gun ownership and hunting. And with shows like sons of guns, duck dynasty, swamp people, red jacket, and top shot, I think 2nd amendment support is higher than ever. I mean a show that broadcasts shooting gators in the head would never have been on the air 10 years ago. I believe in what the NRA is doing and support this amendment, but just because the NRA says the moon is falling and its made outta cheese, doesn't mean I'm gonna buy any crackers
