LESS THAN 2 MONTHS TILL IT GOES AWAY!! And i think it will go away, gay marriage, iraq, and dick cheneys heart all seem to be hotter topics this election year. Plus a repuclican controlled congress will not let this pass after all the BS the dems have been up to. I think the dems look at the AWB as a sacraficial lamb, or a lost cause all together. I honstly think after 9/11 that most americans that didnt agree with guns changed their minds, or adopted an attitude of "i wont own any but ill let my neighbor".
