SC - My exciting Entry into the New Year-OT-OOP

[Rhonda New]

I don't blame you and I'd be mad, too.  But what should really
get the ire up is that 'honest, peace-loving, innocent citizens'
roll over and let our freedom go down the toilet.  Someday,
they'll wake up and realize that disarming honest folk just puts
more power in the hands of the criminials.
OK.  I'll get off my soap box now and get back to fletching
more arrows ;-}.
Have a much happier new year!
