Cut-And-Paste Campaign?
Jun. 26th, 2007 12:34 pmGot a question for folks. There has been a spate of nearly identical letters sent to magazines and newspapers all over the US. The writer claims something like "I've been a hunter for 60 years" and goes on to say that he can't seen any reason for having a "machine gun/assault rifle/Saturday night special/large capacity magazine." The letters are well written and the author knows enough about guns to avoid major mistakes, but sometimes uses anti-gun terminology instead of actual firearms terminology.
There's a lot of speculation among gun owners that this is part of a campaign by anti-gunners, since no-one in the pro-firearms community seems to actually know the writers. I just wondered if any of you have seen such a letter and perhaps know anything about its true status.
