SayUncle suggests we should poke them with a stick.

Here are my answers:

1.  Other:  Organizations such as this one which continually mislead and often outright lie about all aspects of guns, gun ownership, and the constitutionally protected unalienable right to keep and bear arms.

2.  I want to actively influence decision-makers to do the right thing

3.  I've been aware of you and your propaganda machine for many years.

Probably not the kind of answers they were expecting, but then, I'm a crackpot.

Take the survey and then be sure and read the list of "other" reasons for questions 1 & 3.

Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership has some comments on V for Vendetta:

Personally, the Liberty Crew agrees with those who say "V for Vendetta" is an outstanding action/adventure movie that also carries a vital message. Thomas Jefferson, Patrick Henry, and Thomas Paine would have understood and agreed with its tagline: "People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people."

But "V for Vendetta" isn't a simple, straightforward movie, and the character of "V" is not a conventional "good guy" or "bad guy." Behind the explosive story there's a lot to think about.

We recommend that you see it. If you've already seen it, go again; you might find something new and deeper in it. This is also a _great_ opportunity to help your half-awake friends and relatives see more of freedom's light.

They also have ten questions to consider about some of the ideas conveyed by the movie.  Check it out.

Don't you just love shiny things?


Here's another aspect.  I think this one is a little more interesting.  I'm lousy at visual artistry, but I'm trying.

P.S.  The second picture is the first one of my own creations that I've tried out as desktop wallpaper.  It looks quite nice, I think.

As of 5:23 AM CST March 30, I am #2 on Eponym's Top Blogs.

This is a list that resets at the beginning of each month, so I may not even show up on it next month.  The list updates each day at noon central time.

So thanks to everyone who came through here and all those who linked to me.
