My hubby and I discuss this and gun control on a regular basis. He follows my pet law stuff and I follow his NRA stuff. For what it's worth, he tells me that if things keep going the way they are, that he sees a day coming somewhere down the road, where the only dogs and cats available will be bred and provided by the government. AND... You will not "purchase" or "own" them. You will put in a request for a pet and one will be provided to you on "loan" which could be revoked at any time and for any reason. Be afraid... Be VERY afraid!!! :( And now I'm NOT being facetious! YMMV of course... -- Karen C.
