They still haven't achieved any real progress in any courts or legislatures.

So now we're treated to claims or new gun horrors with no supporting cites or links by a self proclaimed "Expert" marksman that never has to practice.

When asked repeatedly for any supporting evidence, they change the subject and dance away.

But the other group has been even quieter than usual lately, going for almost a week with no action from the 2 or 3 regular posters. Funny, for an idea supported by 90% of Americans?
