Folks - Here's an updated version of the proposal that the author put out through a CNN iReport post last Summer.
I have my own feelings and I've seen what some "pro-gun" ppl have had to say on Twitter about it.
Note that his Twitter handle is @JoshuaFlashman and he's very open to feedback from all, including criticisms/changes, etc.
Short version is re-writing gun control laws so that we have a far more organized, state-level militia that has regular training opportunities and few restrictions on what can be possessed and where. The trade off is that if you don't participate in the training, background checks, etc, you'd be limited in the type of arms and subject to location restrictions (ie GFZs).
So, check it out and talk amongst yourselves!
