Funny, though. I haven't seen them publicly ridicule MagPul for choosing to leave for a more politically friendly state if the anti-gun legislation passes. For some reason the MagPul people are heroes for saying they'll leave but others are cowards for saying the same thing. How does that work? Frankly, I agree with MagPul. But I don't see it as any different if an individual decides to take their business, money, talents and resources to another state in order to provide a better lifestyle for their families just as MagPul is doing to provide a better climate for their business.

This whole "fight or die" thing is simply ridiculous and it's a false dilemma. There are other choices. And I really doubt anyone is going to die if they choose to do neither and just "go with the flow". Believe it or not, some people are OK with that. I guess the gung-ho, macho allure of such statements are too hard for the simple-minded to resist.
I completely understand why you want to leave; I feel the same way. It makes me sick really because I love my home and land; I expected to be there for a long time. However, I think it is really important that we come together and fight back in this next election cycle. The Democrats need to know there are consequences. If we don't accomplish something in 2014, then it will get a lot worse nationally.
