Yep, I was president of the local rifle and pistol club when the supreme court decision on individual rights was announced. Cut a deal with the reporter on the same thing, took him shooting, etc., etc.. I got to read it before he turned it in to the editors. Of course when it was published it was anti-gun, anti- shooting and we were all animals. When I called him, he said the editor changed it to conform with newspaper policy. He was lying, of course, as I later found out. Wrote one for me, then the other for the paper. Got so many "letters to the editor", he was promoted up to the Seattle Times from the Yakima Horrid Repulsive.
