| Bio | |||||||||||||||||||
| Been shooting since childhood. Got my first rifle (a Cooey 75) at age 8 and fell in love with the pastime. Got my first shotgun at 10 and fired it for the second time when I was 13 (some of you will get that, some won't). | |||||||||||||||||||

Can I help you with something?
The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He who has nothing, and belongs to another, must be defended by him, and needs no arms: but he who thinks he is his own master, and has anything he may call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself and what he possesses, or else he lives precariously and at discretion. And though for a while those who have the sword in their power abstain from doing him injury; yet, by degrees, he will be awed into submission to every arbitrary command. Our ancestors, by being always armed, and frequently in action, defended themselves against the Romans, Danes and English; and maintained their liberty against encroachments of their own princes. 
— Andrew Fletcher in A Discourse of Government with Relation to Militias in Political Works 6, 1749

# After 1.7.0 offset as minutes
$wgLocalTZoffset = date("Z") / 60;
putenv("TZ=$oldtz");
