OK - before I shut this as a drive-by - could we have the full link and a summary of the major points?

Took a bit of searching (the article is a pop-up window on the home page), but here is the article (in what appears to be a firm URL): Who is the "gun lobby"?

It looks like there is no direct link available. Near the top of the jpfo.org front page, there is a block that reads: "Read the Latest JPFO Alert, Here" followed by "Who is the 'Gun Lobby?'" Click on that for the referenced text by Jeff Knox.

[JPFO sure has a busy web page]

Armorer-at-Law:

Re JPFO having "a busy web site", it is what it is. Possibly "busy" is better than "unbusy"

In any case, it seemed to me that if one went to the JPFO site, having seen my post, the rest was pretty obvious, though some might think otherwise.

I see no reference to it on the front page, and a search for "Jeff Knox" returns only older articles. The article is also mirrored here.

If you're going to post about an external article, please provide a direct, working link. Readers should not have to go digging to find the content.
