SwampYankee, there are times when things that are of national import, that have nothing to do with guns, get discussed here at TFL.
Yes. We have "bent" the rules today, as THIS is one of those times.

I'll just point out that this was not the bombing of Pearl Harbor or the destruction of the Twin Towers, both of which were of national import. And it is not the end of World War II. The war is still on and won't ever "end".
Yeah, Bin Laden is dead. But he's been in isolation for the past 10 years and a lot of people figured he was dead anyway. This changes nothing. It does not make us safer, it probably doesn't even make us less safe. And there isn't even a body because we were too afraid to hold onto it.
Someone asked a question about the firearms at the royal wedding. Got closed when someone mentioned the airplanes in the flyover. But the thread was about firearms and got barely anywhere before being shut down.
TFL just seems a little strange lately...
