The End Game
We’re not talking about some random anti-gun zealot here, someone who can be just dismissed as an inconsequential kook who doesn’t speak for doctrinaire anti-gunners.

Another Simple Way to Help
Also note the "Gunwalker Man" linked graphic in the WoG sidebar.
Look, I'm going to be a pest about this for the next month, because screaming and stamping feet is the only tool I've really got, and it's what resulted in others finally paying attention to Mike's and my incessant noise-making.
The fact of the matter is, the other side wants to make a citizen disarmament propaganda piece, they get funded. And they get plenty of free publicity...uh..."news stories".
We don't have that luxury. If we want something done, in this case a truthful narrative, we have to do it all ourselves as a grassroots action, meaning we need many, many small contributors doing what they can. A link from Drudge would expand the reach on this by more than an order of magnitude.
Tomorrow I'll probably have another bright idea I'll bug you with. Speaking of which, have you written that letter yet? See, I don't do this so that people can just consume, maybe leave a comment and then move on. I do this so people will become force multipliers and their own agents for change.

Here's the thing about Metro's finest: If you're eating candy bars and french fries, that's one thing--chances are they can ruin your day and still go home at the end of their shift. Otherwise...
And by the way, "stalking" the suspect meant you wouldn't have been able to claim "stand your ground" if he'd turned on you, and you then had to use all necessary force to defend yourself. Not that you could in DC anyway...
