I happened on this discussion about ten months after the last cmment, and still find it as an issue today like then. During the time frame os the original posting I did experience the difficulty of purchasing ammo. In fact one large store was depleted of all hand gun ammo except for one box of .357 hollow points which I bought. I think that crisis is over for rigt now. But I wanted to mention something I’ll never forget. Back during the confirmation hearin of Senator John Ashcroft for U.S. Attorney General (would that we had him now in place,of the sorry excuse,Eric Holder, Senator Ashcraft stated in testimony that the 2nd Amendment was mainly given to us to protect ourselves from a tyranica government. When Ted Kennedy heard thi he leaned forward with a sneer on his face, that I’ll never forget and asked; “Do you mean you’d be afraid of us? I don’t remember what Ashcrft answered, but I remember I was thinking, YES SENATOR KENNEDY, I’m very much afraid of what you and your bunch could do to us if we were all unarmed. All one has to do is look back in history and see what was done to an unarmed citizenry. In closing I want to share with you an article.
Newspaper interview in the Berlin Daily dated

Einleitung Von Eberhand.
“This year will go down in history. For the first
time a civilized nation has full gun registration.
Our streets will be safer, our polce more efficient, and the world will follow our lead into
the future.”
