"May I also suggest to firearms owners , to carefully edit from their rhetoric , any mention of them personally owning firearms . Who knows when these forums are being monitored ?"
"What difference would that make ? The BATFE ( E for explosives , their power grows ) already knows you own a firearm if you 've ever had a NICS check . They 're supposed to destroy the records , but who knows what they do ? Might as well let it be known you have some personal experiance in this area . Gives you better grounds for debate than 'Joe Foreigner ' who has never owned or possibly even seen a real firearm in person . Being part of the crowd and looking in from the outside make big differences when it comes to understanding ."
