For Pete sakes the thread has drifted, been stolen to every topic except what it was started as. Stick a fork in it, it's done!!

How about we split the thread into two? Put all the drifted posts in one thread and JimC's in another.
Yeah, this thread strayed off your original post, but it is a very interesting thread (at least for those that are interested in it).

JimC,
For the part I played in thread-drift, I'm sorry. I get fired up at times. As to the OP, the answer is no, the ACLU will be of no service to us. One or two state-level ACLU chapters have taken firearms cases (AZ, TX, ?) but that will not happen here. Want proof? Go to the source and read their stance on 2A and their response to the Heller decision.

The ACLU has a booth at the fair with a poll asking which is your favorite amendment. The second is not even a choice.

Because it drifted? That's sort of a law of forums. Once you start the thread, you have zero control over where it goes. Does the discussion seem inappropriate to you, or do you just not want to participate?

I was going to drop in here and give you props for starting one hell of a thread JimC. No need to lock this gem, your actions REALLY contributed to this forum with your OP.

Singer-actor Jerry Reed dies at the age of 71Quote: Singer-actor Jerry Reed dies at the age of 71 Sept. 2, 2008, 12:47 PM EST NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- Jerry Reed, a singer who appeared in the "Smokey and the Bandit" movies, has died of complications from emphysema at age 71, his longtime booking agent said Tuesday.
Carrie Moore-Reed, who is no relation to the star, said Reed died early Monday morning.
Reed was a gifted guitarist who later became a songwriter, singer and actor.
As a singer in the 1970s and early 1980s, he had a string of hits that included "Amos Moses," "When You're Hot, You're Hot," "East Bound and Down," and "The Bird."
In the mid-1970s, he began acting in movies such as "Smokey and the Bandit" with Burt Reynolds, "Gator" "Hot Stuff" and "High-Ballin'."

The government defines child porn to include any depiction that appears to be of a child. Take a picture of yourself (at age, say, 50), and do a lot of Photoshop work to make it look like you're 15. That's child porn, per the law.
Tell me about who was hurt by it, in particular, which child.
