Raising a glass...

It's been 44 years since my Dad died, on this day in 1981. Next year he'll have been gone as long as he was here on earth. I've outlived him by 15 years so far.

I miss you Dad. I'll be raising a glass to him after this last meeting of the day (at 7:00pm local time).

Re: Protecting Second Amendment Rights

There is also an issue on the laws actually passed that the ATF enforced. Without these being overturned, the duty to enforce these laws would go to the FBI or DOJ itself. Much larger agencies with many more agents and much larger budgets. Yes, in good hands now (or soon to be), but that never lasts...
