Gun Show Report

The show this month was rather sparsely attended. The reason for this is not clear to me, although the beginning of summer and people being involved in having fun elsewhere is likely a factor.

It is also possible that Obies signing of the bill to have you pay for other peoples fiscal irresponsibility and carry in the national parks may have eased some peoples minds, so some of the ammo shortage may be eased briefly.

He has asked the Senate to ratify the OAS Firearms convention, which has gotten not so much coverage lately. This thing was signed by Pres Clinton, but the Senate refused to touch it. I suppose the thought is that when the clown from Minnesota is seated, the Iron Fist of Harry "The War Is Lost" Reid will get this ratified, without the partisan bickering common to elective democracies.

E-mails to your senators pointing out that gun control by treaty is no different from gun control by legislation should cool the fervor for that.
