That was a hilarious & brilliant show. O'Connor was made for that role. (He was liberal too.) RBInMaine Jul 2012 #9

"Brilliant! Archie was right! See, even back then, how the media and the directors and writers manipulated the public? They present the truth, mixed with exaggeration and humor to present their stand on gun control. Archie was right about the communists. Banning guns was key to keeping communism intact. And at the heart of the whole message is the idea that guns in the hands of the people is a bad idea.

In real life, Carroll O'Connor was liberal. What an actor. Just made for that role. Too bad he is gone.
