Hi.  I am DrJ, the webmaster (Well, I do the website.)  First, let me thank the Cleland’s for allowing me to have this place to share some thoughts about our gun rights, but I want to make it clear that these opinions are mine and not necessarily those of Cleland’s. If you wish to reply to this page, you can send of a note to me by using the e-mail address at the bottom of all the page.  Remember, these are my opinions that are expressed on this page.  Thank you.

A few years back, handgun owners in England were talked into turning over their handguns to create a safer country.  The long English tradition of fox hunting was thought to be inviolate.  Well, they have learned differently.  They have also learned that they are not safer than before.  Gun violence is way up.  The crooks bring them in illegally from eastern Europe.  Imagine that.  Prohibition still has not worked.    I encourage you to check out a video that is on the NRA website.  Go to: http://www.nranews.com/nranews.aspx In the “News you can use section, look for “browse archives” and click the button.  Then pick the “videos” button and click.  From the drop down menu pick “newsmagazine” and click.  Then select the video: “England Gun Ban Update” and watch.  If you want to understand what is coming, you need to watch this video.

THE DOD BAN ON THE SALE OF THEIR BRASS HAS BEEN RESCINDED.  Thank you to everyone who took the time to email your representatives and senators concerning the the DOD (Department of Defense) order through DOD Surplus, LLC to remove all of the military's expended brass casings from the reloading market by requiring all of their brass to be “mutilated” or rather shredded.  According to Tom Gresham of Gun Talk, "Emails, faxes, and calls went to the offices of every Senator and Representative on The Hill.  Senators Tester and Baucus of Montana (both Democrats) contacted the Department of Defense on Tuesday, and within an hour, they had a reply that this new, ill-considered, policy had been rescinded. Only 48 hours after I broke the news to the nation's gun owners, you responded, and then THEY responded."
