It's time to quit complaining and get involved. I'm asking you to do me, yourself, and all gun owners a favor.

If you haven't already done it, sign up to be a Gun Talk Truth Squad member. It's free and the sign up is at guntalk.com.

All it means is that you'll get an email from me now and then alerting you to issues.

Also, it means you'll shoot an email or make a phone call

when you see or hear bogus reports on gun ownership. I'll help you with the info you get as part of the True Squad.

We need you on board. Welcome to Tom Gresham's Gun Talk, where there's more to talk about than shooting.

There's reloading and hunting and self-defense too.

All right, welcome again to Gun Talk, glad that you could be with us.

I'm Tom Gresham, and you can reach us pretty easily by calling 866, 825486.

Actually, a lot of people on the lines right now,

but keep trying, we'll see if we can get you in here

We're talking about a whole bunch of stuff today

Plaxico Burris the New York Giants football player who shot himself in the leg with his 40 caliber

Glock and how Mayor Michael Bloomberg is saying we ought to throw the book at

him and I know people are saying well it shouldn't have been it shouldn't have been and it was illegal

you know yeah but there's this is definitely a yeah but deal yeah but there's but there's no way for him to

legally carry a gun there's no way for him to legally carry a gun.

There's no way for him to legally protect himself there.

And we know that NFL players have been targeted by criminals. At least one's been murdered,

murdered, how are they supposed to protect themselves?

Just because they're big and strong, that didn't mean anything when you get a gang of people that wants to hurt them or kill them, rob them.

So what's he supposed to do? Well, okay, you can say, yeah, well, obey the law.
