By all means, share. I can only work with the information I have. Whats the project, what does it aim to do, how does it intend to achieve the stated goal?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Yeah, everybody says that until they're called to the coroner's office.

Gawd, you seem to prefer to pick at the method of communication of others, rather than discuss the matter at hand. I tried to engage you with polite discussion. I am open minded and can be changed by good argument and evidence. Your response was to call me a "shell gamer." You continue to pick at other people by saying they are simply obtuse or disingenuous, or just not as smart as your History Masters Brain. I try to be polite for the sake of communication, but you are just annoying. As to your implication concerning "bunker" types, I just simply do not agree with you. Armed citizens are not bunker types, and the implication is that those supporting gun-rights are schizophrenic-peep-out-the-window types. There may very well be a majority of anti-gunners in your little world, but that is certainly not an accurate representation of all Americans. I hope for your sake that a "bunker" type is around if, Flying Spaghetti Monster forbid, the wolf comes calling for you.

Well, I work at a wolf sanctuary, so I know how to deal with wolves. BTW, I'm a shooter and owner since 1965.

Gawd... I know you will not agree, but the gun is only the means. A knife can be the means. A car can be the means. A pair of hands can be the means. All of those mentioned often are the means of killing. Putting blame on the means lessens the importance of the cause.
Without a deity to snap his fingers, making all firearms disappear and removing all thought of the making of firearms from all human minds, there is absolutely no way to get rid of all firearms. To think we can get rid of all guns is just head-in-the-sand stupid. Firearms can be made very easily, and prohibition will only give breath to the black market. Getting rid of a type of firearm because of features is the first step in further restriction and eventual prohibition.
You keep saying you're an owner and shooter, so how can you think the gun is the problem? Have your guns gone out and caused problems? Have they killed people? Are they out raping and plundering, ever? Have your guns ever set themselves on a table within reach of a child? If you had an AR-15, would you suddenly turn rabid? Would that pistol grip or semi-automatic function turn you into a crazed-killer? Guns are not the problem. Insanity, hate, negligence and religion are the problems.
Creationists are like Slinkys: It's hard not to giggle when they tumble down the stairs.
