I only got half way through that and it is rather insane.

As far as the current Republicans not doing anything to help our gun rights, I think they did plenty. The ban on assault style weapons was allowed to fall into the sunset. They passed legislation that prevents frivolous lawsuits against gun manufacturers, which prevents the liberals from suing the manufacturers into non-existance/bankruptcy.

In Maryland, which is a pretty liberal state, this past legislative session there was an assault weapons ban bill in the General Assembly and it didn't get passed. I was pretty thankful about that one and am trying to buy my AR-10 and AR-15 before the next legislative session. Heck, I am about to write my current state senator and ask him what his position is on gun control. He is a democrat, but he takes the position that his style is not a party affiliation one, but a common sense one. He is originally from Michigan, he was in the reserves, he works for a law firm that I am pretty familiar with, and he is 34 years old, so who knows what his position is.
