Very true. As a kid growing up on eastern Long Island, we would think
nothing of a kid riding down the street on his bike with a shotgun across
the handle bars to do a little hunting in the woods. Now, after
suburbanization, a kid doing that would probably result in a take-down by
a SWAT team.

Now that I'm in the process of pre-retirement, and moving to NH, I see the
same thing here, although the pro-gun ownership culture (which includes
Skylune, btw) up here is much stronger, thank goodness.

Of course, our Constitution guarantees the right to bear arms. It says
nothing about the right to fly low over peoples homes at all hours. That
crap came from the nefarious FAA.
