: The fact that Colt is getting out of the consumer gun market may be a taste of things looming over the horizon. I can see it coming. Gun control. Seems like the climate is getting more favorable for the further erosion to constitutional rights enjoyed since this country's creation. Our legislatures are so busy attempting to save and protect us from ourselves that it has become laughable, if we could only afford to join in with the merriment! Steve

I'm not really sure how this is being allowed to happen. The media is having a field day, and yet when I looked at a poll being taken by CNN on their internet page yesterday, the question was asked "Should gun makers be held responsible for the actions of certain individuals, as charged in the cities legal filings against the gun makers?", the results showed the poll of over 108,000+ against to only 3,000+ for. Not exactly a majority in ANYONES mind, and yet the media still claims that the US population is all for this litigation. Strange that they claim 1st Amendment rights to make these statements, and yet forget that it's the Second Amendment that ALLOWS them that first Amendment protection. Regards. Michaelson
