A Decades-Long Slow-Motion Hate Crime

That's how the War on Gunowners™ has been described. This piece entitled Intolerance of gun owners nation-wide problem puts it very well. Excerpt:
If you want to taste intolerance, let it be known you not only own guns, you like them. For instance, I can't help but notice the worried looks and whispers of waiting passengers while helping a ticket agent check in my rifle or muzzleloader at the airport. In one case, my daughters overheard a woman tell her husband, "You'd think with children in his house he wouldn't keep guns around."

Amazing. I would have thought she would have been more impressed that my three daughters — then fairly young — had stood in line for 30 minutes without irritating the spit out of everyone within hearing.
