And melt them down for plowshears. I mean, those were the conditions for taking his guns away, right?

1. Have yet to meet a rabid American gun "nut" who seemed concerned in the least about eroding 1st
Amendment rights. :shrug:

2. How many gun enthusiasts do you know personally?
You'd probably consider me a "gun nut" (my wife and I both own guns, my rifle has an (OMG!!) protruding handgrip, and we don't hunt), and I am damn concerned about the erosion of the 1st, and even more concerned about the erosion of the 4th and 5th.

Gun enthusiasts tend to lean civil libertarian rather than authoritarian, and half of gun owners are Dems and indies (a factoid you'd never know from the MSM).
