Thumbs up What is happening to the gun control movement?

NPR described the VPC as "one of the more aggressive gun groups in Washington." Yet the VPC's representative claimed: “If the existing assault-weapons ban expires, I personally do not believe it will make one whit of difference one way or another in terms of our objective...
which is reducing death and injury and getting a particularly lethal class of firearms off the streets. So if it doesn’t pass, it doesn’t pass.”
What is happening to our Gun Control Movement? Don't ask This Guy!!!
I currently travel up and down 'ol Route 66 to get to where I live, and my family. I now travel this road regularly, and today, there was a very mean looking Harley with a man on it, next to my car.

Attached to the back of His bike was a very large American Flag, and upon closer inspection, a VFW insignia, and other "War" patches, on a very worn looking black leather jacket.
When we came to a stoplight on the highway, He was in the next lane. I rolled down my window, and gave a huge thumbs up! The man was ponytailed, with goggles, and a little grey hair.
But, He smiled back. I yelled, "thank You for Your service"...and He shrugged, and said, "thanks for appreciating it!"

I told Him He looked Great, and the light turned green. He did not "rev the engine"... instead just carried on, at the speed limit.

Point is, I am sure He might have been armed, He had all the luggage of a long journey, but God Bless 'em, I was glad to know that He might have been "packin"!
