The media would love to come into our shows to actually catch on tape just how 'Easy it is for kids to buy automatic weapons'..of course what we would probably see is some owner's son arranging his display..but the political activists would use it against us. No cameras is pretty much a standard rule. Can you imagine an upstanding city council member sitting in front of his Luger collection while decrying the street crime in his city? We wouldn't see that as a contradiction but the politically sophisticated could use this as good fodder for a negative campaign. I, for one, would really like to see gun-ownership taken out of the political arena. I know it is unrealistic to hope for that but we are used as a football by both sides. The Democrats use us to unelect some pretty good leaders and the Republicans use us to elect some really poor leaders (only because we can't support someone who won't support sensible gun ownership).
