I was discussing the current state of arms use in america with my roomate when this question came up.
I say yes, a great many own firearms and are very proficient in their use. My roomate disagreed, he felt the overwhelming ignorance(citing his own previous lack of knowledge) to the uses of firearms in the general populace was so great that at the best the american rifleman is a breed that is dying out and is going to become extinct within our lifetime. he cited increasing hostility towards firearms ownership and firearms in general. I feel that with the increasing enactment of CCW laws we are turning back on the road to true freedom. What do you think?do you believe america is still a nation of riflemen?
