Concealed Carry

[jl1966]

As information, this list was taken down monday afternoon. I live in Roanoke, and this guy writes for a small paper called the New River Current ( picturesqe name for an anti gun leaning paper, right) in Christiansburg. Christiansburg is a smaller town near Roanoke. You can imagine my shock at seeing this thread on here. After tracing the links down and reading the article in question, I attempted to contact the publisher of the Roanoke times, of which The Current is an affiliate, but was unsuccessful, and left a voicemail. I then contacted the Times outdoor writer, Mark Taylor, who was not pleased, said he was posting something to his blog about it and suggested I contact Mr. Trejbals editor, Mr. Stan Radmacher. I said that I would and thanked Mr. Taylor for his support. I had to leave for work then, but jotted down the numbers of the larger local gun shops and called them to make them aware of the article. All were incensed to say the least. I also contacted several of my hunting and shooting friends to make them aware. I am sure I was not the only one to make this kind of effort. A state gun rights advocacy organization called the Virginia Citizens Defense League was also evidently quite influential in the removal of this list from the website. I was aware of this group but not a member, a situation soon to change.
