There was something about the ad that appeared on Gloria
Culver's website, CSP Gun Talk (http://www.jouster.com),
that just didn't seem quite right.

Please call 805-(phone # redacted) as I do not have much access to
e-mail,
Thank you,

CSP Gun Talk regulars weren't fooled.
"Linda" was quickly outed as Linda S. Vaughn, the Southeast
Region's Senior Associate Director for the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun
Violence United with the Million Mom March. The fact that the phone number
she listed was her Brady/MMM office number didn't leave much doubt as to
her identity.
Gloria Culver said, "It didn't take much to figure what this was, it
was nothing but bait to get some guy to fall for 'maybe' an illegal
weapons transfer. She underestimated experienced gun owners! BIG
TIME!" Ms. Culver also made it a point to call Ms. Vaughn herself,
and told her that she would be reporting her to the BATFE for posting a
misleading ad. (As of this writing, no charges have been filed.)
This probably won't be the last time this year that anti-rights advocates
try to play detective. Long on arrogance and short on knowledge, these
crusaders will be plowing ahead with plans designed to prove to the
"unsuspecting" populace that 2nd Amendment supporters are vile
heathens whose blind love of firearms is responsible for all the world's
ills.
Incidents like this, though, only serve to prove that sometimes it pays
to look beyond the end of one's nose.
