Virginia Gun Owners Forum - VGOF

Let's please not let this discussion disintegrate into any kind of name-calling or personal bashing. The OP has a legitimate question (which I believe has been answered), whether or not you believe the motives or the methods that have been implemented up to this point.

I appreciate everyone's comments and suggestions, except for Flavet's ... whose comments reveal him to be - in my opinion of course - just plain weird and an frigging idiot to boot.
