Ms. Laughing,
Because you have asked I will quit being a party to this thread. We will never agree or change our minds be left to our own devices we will rail against each other until we out cute each other. I said early on this was a no win discussion.
But people will know that I am a gun owner even if I say nothing. They will smell the Hoppes # 9 faintly on my hands when we meet. Or they notice I am a little deaf in my left ear or I'll forget and wear my yellow glasses. I can hide it from some by putting a 4 foot level and a fly rod in the gun rack in the backwindow of my truck but others will know. Yes, others will know.
Or maybe not.
Your Pal til hell won't have it.
Don
