NRA for Knife Owners

http://www.kniferights.org/

We all know that Macgyver didn't like guns, but he never promoted an outright BAN on them. Gun Owners have the Constitution, and whether you agree with them or not, everyone has an interest in self-defense, or other issue that is very important to them.

In light of current events, it would be an absurdity to lose the right to own a "Macgyver Knife" yet it seems like an increasing possibility. Some accuse the NRA folks of being gun-nuts and paranoids, but essentially, they are simply trying to protect their rights.

So, how about an NRA for good ole knife owners? Yes there sure it. Eggs-actly!
