I don't. And just so you don't try to claim I'm taking it out of context, felons have nothing to do with gun control. Should a 1st time drunk driver be denied his DL the rest of his life? Those decisions should depend on the crime. Take a life (in either case), then no. Not every convicted felon committed a violent crime.

So, you weren't aware the AWB expired (1994-2004)? Seriously? Congress let it expire.

When the doorbell rings I answer the door, all has been ok so far, when I want to go to town I don't take my gun with me, all has been ok so far so paranoia as far as self defense goes doesn't interfere with my everyday life.
Sounds like the current administration

Whether anything at all will happen remains to be seen, I don't think anything is set in stone, as far as I know anyway... I don't expect them to come and get my 22 because if they do I won't have anything to dispose of a stray dog now and then and I'm not looking forward to trying to do that with a kitchen knife.
Spoken like a true Fudd. Don't worry, they day will come they'll want yours as well. Then it'll be too late to wished you'd have learned a little more, and done nothing a little less.
